<p id=”par-1_82″>Not long after portraying a tennis star in <em>Challengers</em>, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/zendaya/?swcfpc=1″>Zendaya</a> threw herself back into the game while sitting courtside at Wimbledon. The tennis tournament, which is held in London, hosts many stylish <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/celebrity/”>celebrity</a> guests each year. This year, Zendaya was among spectators like Tom Cruise, Julia Roberts, and David Beckham. Zendaya is one of the best dressed stars in Hollywood, and her Wimbledon looks did not disappoint. She wore two menswear-inspired outfits, keeping her looking chic as she anxiously watched the players.</p>

<p id=”par-2_53″>On July 13, Zendaya joined the <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/expert-says-kate-middleton-didnt-put-on-a-brave-face-powered-through-wimbledon-appearance.html/”>crowd at Wimbledon</a> in a brown tweed Ralph Lauren blazer over a blue button down and horizontally striped tie. She added a level of casualness to the look by keeping her tie loose, leaving many of her buttons undone, and wearing a pair of oversized jeans. </p>

<p id=”par-3_56″>The actor, who was there to watch the women’s final match between Barbora Krejčíková and Jasmine Paolini, kept her makeup glowy and natural. She wore her blonde hair in a messy bun and donned large pearl earrings set in gold. Zendaya’s <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/zendaya-parents.html/”>mother, Claire Stoermer</a>, joined her at the match, wearing a striped cardigan and layered necklaces.</p>

<p id=”par-4_52″>The following day, Zendaya returned to Wimbledon in another Ralph Lauren look. She wore a white double breasted suit dress over a striped blue shirt and navy tie to watch the match between Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic. Her cherry red nails provided a nice contrast to the blue and white look.</p>

<p id=”par-5_45″>She opted for a similar makeup look to the day before, wearing minimal eye makeup and a subtle pink shade of lipstick. Her hair, which falls to her shoulders, was sleek and smooth with an upward flip at the ends. She wore simple diamond studs.</p>

<p id=”par-6_81″>In the months before Wimbledon, Zendaya spent the <em>Challengers </em>press tour <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/zendaya-tennis-core-era-debuts-preppy-look-blonde-hair.html/”>wearing tennis-inspired looks</a>. For example, at a press event in Rome, she wore tennis balls at the bottom of a pair of stilettos and, in Australia, donned a sparkling green gown with the silhouette of a tennis player. In Milan, she wore a white, 1992 Ralph Lauren mini dress with a collar. The silhouette was evocative of tennis dresses, particularly because white is the standard color for competitors at Wimbledon.</p>

<p id=”par-7_27″>To prepare for her role as tennis star Tashi Duncan in the Luca Guadagnino film, Zendaya immersed herself in the sport. She began by watching it obsessively.</p>
<p id=”par-8_46″>“I didn’t know anything about tennis, to be honest,” she told <a href=”https://variety.com/2024/film/news/challengers-zendaya-black-tennis-player-producer-1235982875/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Variety</a>. “So I just threw myself in there. I’ve pretty much seen every video, every match that’s online, every compilation, every interview. It became my thing. Anytime I wasn’t at work, I was watching something.”</p>
<p id=”par-9_36″>While she admitted she wasn’t “the most perfect” tennis player, she trained hard to learn the sport. She drew on her dance background and worked closely with her body double and co-stars to learn to play.</p>
<p id=”par-10_122″>“It felt like summer camp. We’d wake up — Mike [Faist], Josh [O’Connor] and myself on these three courts side-by-side — and we’d just practice for however many hours, and then we’d go and work out, and then we’d have a break, and we’d come back and the second half of the day was rehearsal,” she explained. “Such a great time of learning a new skill. Working out isn’t necessarily something I do without having the motivation of work to do, and having space to rehearse is really special, because often you don’t have that time to dig into the material, ask questions, play around, get to know the characters, get to know your fellow actors. That was really a special time.”</p>
