Carlos Alcaraz changes US Open outfit to prevent wardrobe malfunctions

Tennis star Carlos Alcaraz adjusted his attire during the US Open after experiencing wardrobe issues with his Nike sleeveless top. The athlete noted that the cut of the shirt caused his chest to be exposed during rallies, stating, “I think I saw my nipple too much lately. So I felt like I could hide it for at least once.”

To resolve the issue, Alcaraz opted to wear a white compression undershirt during his third-round victory against Wu Yibing. He confirmed the change was his own decision rather than a directive from Nike, noting that the extra layer felt comfortable and he intends to continue wearing it.

The wardrobe situation drew significant social media attention, including comments from former player Eugenie Bouchard. Additionally, Alcaraz’s post-match actions sparked debate among spectators; after his win, he removed his shirts, leading some fans to criticize the behavior of spectators who were seen filming him suggestively.
