The stars are aligning at the US Open. After Simone Biles graced the women’s quarterfinal match at the Arthur Ashe Stadium, it was time for Noah Lyles, Suni Lee, and more to turn up the heat. Catching the women’s final between Aryna Sabalenka and Jessica Pegula, the likes Suni Lee, Noah Lyles, Gabby Thomas, and Rai Benjamin were seen rooting for the US sensation, Pegula. 

Unfortunately, their elation did not last long as Pegula failed to overcome the Belarusian challenge. Sabalenka kept her nerves and defeated the American with the score reading 7-5, 7-5. Apart from Lyles and Lee, NBA icon Steph Curry was also spotted enjoying the sport from the stands along with his wife, Ayesha Curry.

Speaking about the tennis stars, the men’s 100m Olympic gold medalist said, “Tennis players are World Champions that play against the top in the world constantly.”

Meanwhile, both Suni Lee and Noah Lyles mesmerized the fans back in Paris. Both Lyles and Lee won the gold medal in their respective categories. But after the conclusion of the games, the fans of both Lee and Lyles will have to wait significantly to watch their favorite stars in action once again.

While Lee will not be featuring in the Gold Over America Tour, she is also doubtful for the 2028 Olympics in LA. Speaking about her future endeavors with Elle, the Tokyo all-around gold medalist said, “I don’t know how much gymnastics I’ll be doing during that time, but maybe L.A. in 2028. We’ll see.”
