Meet Zoe from The Bronx, who sees herself in Madison Keys. Both play tennis. Both choose to let their game dictate their identity. Both are changing the game without changing themselves.
Tennis is a sport with definitive lines. These lines tell you when, where, and how you should play. In some ways, the same can be said for women in the tennis world. Theyʼre reminded that thereʼs a right and a wrong way to act. Theyʼre told to be prim, proper, and “ladylike.” Madison doesnʼt fit the mold. And thatʼs why sheʼs happy to break it.
“I never feel like I have to be stuck in any sort of lines.”
9th-ranked Madison Keys wears NikeCourt Dry Slam tank ($70) and NikeCourt Flex Victory skirt ($75).
