Why this year’s US Open was so awesome
Celebrities in the audience
Everyone loves the audience cam at Arthur Ashe (perhaps too much, some of you dancing buffoons know what I’m talking about), but perhaps one of the best parts of the tennis championship is seeing which New York City celebrities are in attendance. Jay Z and wife Beyoncé watched their friend Serena Williams, Jonah Hill was in full beard and shades, avid tennis fan Kevin Spacey was there, plenty of Orange is the New Black stars (Uzo Aduba and Danielle Brooks, and Adrienne C. Morre), Alec Baldwin was snapped giving the thumbs-up sign, Anna Wintour looked customarily unimpressed (perhaps sad her friend Roger Federer was out for the season?), Michael Strahan brought his two daughters, Wolverine actor Hugh Jackman took a selfie with Djokovic’s coach and legend Boris
Becker, but perhaps the funniest celebrity sighting was seeing The Wolf of Wall Street star Leonardo di Caprio not only take a selfie with a young fan (who looked about age 12) in the audience, but also check it afterwards to make sure it came out all right. Other celebrities included Heidi Klum, Tony Bennett, Hugh Grant, and Regis Philbin.
