Another US Open Tennis Championship has come and gone!

The annual tournament, which occurs at the end of every summer in New York City, is a can’t-miss for any tennis fan.

This year was bigger and better than ever before, as the showdown added a 15th day for the first time, stretching from August 24 to September 7. And the game was pretty dang good too: Aryna Sabalenka successfully defended her title in the Women’s Singles while Carlos Alcaraz beat last year’s reigning champ in an especially tense Men’s Singles final.

Traditionally, the US Open attracts an A-list roster of celebrity spectators who make the trek out to hear some grunts, thwacks, and drink the infamous Honey Deuce, the US Open’s signature cocktail, which features some impressively accurate tennis ball-esque garnishes.

And if you assumed a sporting event of this scale would be a hetero-only affair, you’d be sorely mistaken. After all, the whole thing goes down at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, named after the trailblazing lesbian world champion!
