Wimbledon 2025: Tennis Players Bring Bling, Luxury Accessories on the Court
Besides epic upsets and first-time champions, Wimbledon showcased tennis stars as influencers who turned Centre Court into a Glam Slam.
A little bling on the tennis court is nothing new. After all, the tennis bracelet got its name in 1978 when Chris Evert wore the cute trinket onto the court. But now, it’s more than jewelry. Players are arriving on the court with luxury watches, custom-made headphones, designer bags, and expensive earrings. The ultimate influencers, tennis players, bring bling bling to the baseline.
With all the face time tennis players get during matches, brands are taking notice. At Wimbledon 2025, top players were like walking billboards, advertising several items at once.
Ben Shelton and Coco Gauff Listen in Style
Ben Shelton and Coco Gauff have different clothing sponsors. Shelton wears On, and Gauff represents New Balance. However, both wore custom-designed one-of-a-kind QuietComfort Ultra Headphones as they walked onto the court.
The exclusive custom headphones were inspired by Wimbledon’s all-white tradition, reimagined by British designer Grace Wales Bonner. Shelton and Gauff are Bose ambassadors.
Sinner and Musetti show off Italian Designers
Italy is known for fine fashion, so it’s fitting that the two top-ranked Italian players showcased designer digs when they arrived on court.
Jannik Sinner arrived on court with a Gucci duffle bag that retails from $2500 to $5000. Meanwhile, Lorenzo Musetti wore a $12,000 Bottega Veneta white leather jacket.
When he’s not balling on the court, Musetti is somewhat of a spokesmodel for Bottega Veneta.
Andrey Rublev’s $180,000 Swiss Watch
“Time!” That’s what the chair umpire says to tennis players when it’s time to resume play. Today’s top players wear the most fashionable timepieces.
Russian tennis star Andrey Rublev wore the Vanguart Orb, a rare timepiece made from lightweight titanium featuring a futuristic skeleton dial and a levitating flying tourbillon, valued at around $180,000.
The watch, created by Swiss independent maker Vanguart, has a neon green strap that complements Rublev’s K-Swiss Wimbledon outfit. According to Tennis.com, Rublev overshadowed Carlos Alcaraz’s $39,400 Tiffany-blue Rolex.
Rublev used to represent Bulgari’s luxury watches.
Sabalenka sports a $69,000 Audemars Piguet, a brand endorsed by Serena Williams for years. Jessica Pegula and Tommy Paul wear $90,000 timepieces from De Bethune.
Aryna Sabalenka’s Dazzling Emeralds
Aryna Sabalenka wore layers of emeralds. There is no official word on who designed Sabalenka’s jewelry. One gemologist speculated that they were custom-made and could be worth $20,000. According to The Telegraph, Sabalenka and Emma Raducanu wore earrings and necklaces valued between $4000 and $30,000.
These players are wearing jewelry worth more than the singles winners' prize money in 1988. This is a testament to inflation, the increase in compensation for professional athletes, and the role they play as influencers.
It's cool to see the luxury accessories they are wearing.
