Williams told reporters during her post-match press conference that she’d been wanting to wear a tutu for some time, describing the look as “easy to play in.”

“[It’s] kind of aerodynamic with the one arm free. It feels really good,” she told reporters. “Yeah, the tutu is easy to play in because I practiced in it before. That was fun.”
