Bianca Andreescu’s win in the first round of the US Open wasn’t the highlight of her match yesterday, what caught the public attention was Andreescu’s outburst to the chair umpire due to her Nike attire. Her dress seemed to give her a lot of problems as it kept riding up in the windy New York weather.

Talking about the situation in her post-match press conference, Andreescu said, “Yeah, it (the attire) was just bothering me on some forehands. I just felt like it was kind of coming up a bit. Obviously, the wind didn’t help. But, I mean, I meant no disrespect with what I said to the umpire, I was trying to convince him to not take away that washroom break because I know we only get two. He was very nice to say it was totally okay.”

“I could have definitely used a different choice of wording. So I apologize to anyone I disrespected, I love Nike and I hope I can be with them for the rest of my life. But, yeah,” Andreescu added further.

After beating Harmony Tan in three sets in the first round of the US Open, Bianca Andreescu is scheduled to face Brazilian international, Beatriz Haddad Maia in the second round of the tournament which promises to be a thrilling encounter.
