Taylor Swift headlined the list of celebrities present at the U.S. Open final on Sunday, as another Taylor - Fritz - aimed to end a 21-year American men's major drought on Arthur Ashe Stadium against Italian top seed Jannik Sinner. Music, TV, and film stars flocked to Flushing Meadows over the past weeks, occupying luxury boxes and enjoying the venue's iconic $23 'Honey Deuce' cocktails. Celebrities returned in full force for Sunday's finale.

Few stars shine brighter in American pop culture than Swift, who previously ignited a surge in the NFL ticket resale market last season by attending her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce's games. Kelce and Swift arrived hand-in-hand for the match, joined by Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany, choosing tennis over the NFL's first Sunday of the season after winning their Thursday opener.

'In a tennis era,' tournament organizers wrote on social media platform X, sharing a video of the couple at Flushing Meadows. Swift's Eras Tour has been breaking records internationally. The crowd also included former U.S. Open champion Andy Roddick, Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Jon Bon Jovi, and Academy Award winner Matthew McConaughey, who sported a patriotic bandana.

'Friends' star Courteney Cox, 'Today Show' hosts Savannah Guthrie, Hoda Kotb, Jenna Bush Hager, and nighttime talk show host Stephen Colbert were spotted on a cool but sunny afternoon. Vogue editor Anna Wintour, seated beside actor Eddie Redmayne, returned to the stands, which also hosted Olympic gold medalist Noah Lyles and F1 driver Lewis Hamilton during the women's championship match a day earlier.
