Coco Gauff, Iga Świątek, Alexandra Eala, and several other WTA stars displayed their stunning off-court style at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix players’ party in Stuttgart. The players looked delighted as they embraced the opportunity to unwind before the WTA 500 clay-court event kicks into high gear.

Black appeared to be the theme of the night, with several players stepping out in black ensembles for the bash. Gauff opted for a casual chic look, pairing a black top with jeans and rounding out her look with loose, flowing hair. Świątek, meanwhile, turned heads in a stylish black dress featuring mesh panels along the midriff, which she offset with white sneakers.
Alexandra Eala brought a pop of color to the mix, exuding effortless style by layering a maroon jacket over her black tank top and jeans. She was all smiles while posing with Eva Lys, who stepped out in a gray tie-up suit and sleek ponytail.
Jasmine Paolini looked cozy in a navy blue cardigan, complemented by subtle gold jewelry. Desirae Krawczyk rounded out the lineup in a black vest and jeans.

Gauff and Lys appeared to be in high spirits as they enjoyed each other’s company at the party, playfully labeling themselves as “yappers.” The pair had already struck up a rapport earlier, bonding over the popular TV series “Heated Rivalry” amid their preparations for the WTA 500 event.

Gauff also spoke highly of Lys during her pre-tournament press conference, describing her as a “great person” after their first practice session together. She expressed confidence in Lys’ potential as she predicted a bright future for the German.
“Yeah, Eva Lys is a great player, great person. Someone I got to know over the course since Australian Open. That’s been really cool. It’s our first time practicing together. Yeah, I think she’s a great player,” Gauff said. “I think once she’s healthy and finds her form, we’ll see her in the top of the rankings for sure.”
Coco Gauff and Eva Lys have the opportunity to set up a blockbuster meeting at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix, but they will both need to reach the semifinals first. Following a first-round bye, Gauff will kick off her campaign against Liudmila Samsonova. Meanwhile, Lys will take on Paula Badosa in the first round, with Elina Svitolina looming as her second-round opponent.
On the other side of the draw, Alexandra Eala will face Leylah Fernandez in a highly anticipated first-round clash, while Iga Świątek will lock horns with Laura Siegemund in the second round. Top seed Elena Rybakina, who appears to have missed the players’ party after her late arrival in Stuttgart, will face the winner of the match between Diana Shnaider and Tamara Korpatsch in the second round.
