Frances Tiafoe is turning to a ghost of New York Knicks past as he prepares for a major match at the US Open.
It takes seven wins to prevail in the US Open. Thus, Frances Tiafoe appears to be turning to the magic of the most famous No. 7 in New York Knicks history as he prepares to embark on a historic showdown at the US Open in Queens.
With his semifinal showdown against Taylor Fritz looming, ESPN cameras caught Tiafoe warming up at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center adorned in a Carmelo Anthony jersey.
Donning Anthony's jersey also literally hits home for Tiafoe thanks to their shared Maryland connection: Tiafoe hails from Hyattsville while Anthony formally introduced himself to the national basketball scene through three seasons at Towson Catholic. Basketball reps have also populated the stands at Arthur Ashe Stadium: New York Liberty head coach Sandy Brondello spent some of the Liberty's late summer vacation in Queens , as did Ionesu herself. Another Knicks, Josh Hart, has been a mainstay,Tiafoe, ranked 20th among participants, previously appeared in Queens' semifinals in 2022.
