 NIKECOURT AIR ZOOM GP TURBO WHITE/HOT LIME/NEO TURQUOISE/SOLAR RED

 If Nike’s take on tennis in the 1980s offered subtle jabs at country club convention, the brand’s early-’90s approach delivered a knockout punch. Arriving on the emergent Andre Agassi at the tail end of 1990, the Nike Challenge Court apparel collection defined a whole new energy for tennis in the early part of the decade. On the courts of Flushing, Queens, Agassi reached the second slam final of his career. His look, style and attitude — a mix of denim, neon and surf/skate-like geometric graphics — pulled tennis into the now.  The Challenge Court logo itself was inspired by an accidental ink blot. It was like the grunge response to ’80s pop art, and it naturally fit an era of dynamic change for the sport. Agassi wasn't just rising in the tennis ranks, he was a pop culture juggernaut. The Challenge Court look propelled advertisements extolling the virtues of playing loud, and even a "Rock & Roll Tennis Camp." "Bringing back a historical collection from 30 years a...

The underfoot cushioning of the Nike Air Zoom GP Turbo helps boost the dynamic athleticism that modern players like Frances Tiafoe use to control the court. American Frances Tiafoe is part of a young generation of tennis pros who possess an athletic, all-court game. He’s equally comfortable mastering the baseline or rushing the net. At 6 feet 2 inches tall, his long frame seems at odds with his acceleration and downhill speed. The Nike Air Zoom GP Turbo, NikeCourt’s new performance silhouette, is designed for players like Tiafoe, providing an exceptional court feel to support athleticism that can be unleashed in an instant. The shoe’s defining feature: an Air Zoom strobel unit that runs nearly the entire foot. It’s the same proprietary tech used for dynamic movement on the basketball court. Bringing the Air closer to the foot, the Zoom strobel provides a more responsive court feel, helping athletes like Tiafoe play long into the final set. “I’m moving everywhere on the court. I ...

From One Rebel to Another Nick Kyrgios lowers his guard with John McEnroe about fines, the heat of the moment, and changing the game.

The patterns throughout the men and women's apparel were created by Australian-raised artist Cassie Byrnes, who finds inspiration through the tropical beauty of North Queensland, translating it onto watercolor paper through pigment inks and gouache. "I start with a considered palette and story," she says. "Then I play with mark-making, texture and composition to capture the essence and spirit of the theme." The year’s opening slam in Melbourne boasts a raucous atmosphere, drawing an annual attendance of more than 700,000. Melbourne also tracks the hottest temperatures of any of tennis’ four majors. Averaging more than 100 degrees, the heat challenges players and, in turn, NikeCourt’s apparel designers to outduel the fiery conditions. To account for heat during play, a knee-length bodysuit was developed for women as a baselayer. This garment is informed by Atlas body-mapping to identify the areas that tend to overheat (notably under the bra and at the neckli...
