By Grant Mobley, July 11, 2025
This season, the biggest names in women’s tennis are making diamonds part of their signature style—layering necklaces, stacking bracelets, and sporting earrings with serious sparkle. The iconic tennis bracelet may have started it all, but today’s players are taking on-court jewelry to dazzling new heights.

In women’s tennis, power, precision, and poise have always ruled the court. But this tennis season, diamonds are making just as strong a statement as any masterful backhand. From the baseline to the post-match interview, today’s top tennis stars are redefining sportswear glamour—layering diamond necklaces, stacking bracelets, and styling multiple earrings, all without sacrificing performance. The message is clear: the classic diamond tennis bracelet was just the beginning.
No conversation about diamonds and tennis would be complete without acknowledging the iconic origin of the tennis bracelet. The now-legendary piece earned its name during the 1987 U.S. Open, when tennis champion Chris Evert lost her diamond line bracelet mid-match, prompting an unexpected pause in play. That moment forever linked the elegance of fine jewelry with the athleticism of the game, and a new staple was born.

At this year’s Wimbledon, those hoops even took center stage during a memorable moment when one flew off mid-match and landed on the grass.
In a display of sportsmanship and solidarity, fellow competitor Dayana Yastremska of Ukraine graciously picked it up and handed it back to Gauff, prompting some to wonder: Are we witnessing the birth of a new diamond jewelry legend on the court, à la Chris Evert’s iconic tennis bracelet moment this tennis season?

Around her neck, she layers multiple gold and diamond necklaces with the kind of casual elegance that only comes from knowing exactly who you are.
