Where do tennis stars rock their new kicks and apparel? Where else but in the Australian Open, the first—the most festive—of the four tennis majors?

So it just makes perfect sense for Melbourne Park to be the fashion playground for ball-hitters raring to go big, bold and, on occasion, blindingly bright.

What’s seems to be a hot statement this season is pink—and it’s worn by the guys in the most acid-bright hues that pop against the blue hard courts with their every stride, jump and service kick.

Leading the pack is Swiss ace Roger Federer, who matched the threads from his latest NikeCourt collection with the brand’s Zoom Vapor 9.5 Tour in Lava Glow-Hyper Orange-Volt-Black.

Sounds complicated? We sum it up as tennis kicks in neon salmon-pink, and these are a perfect complement to the black-and-white graphic-print shirt sported by the Fed Express.

Booties

The Nike army has Australians Nick Kyrgios and Bernard Tomic as well as American Jack Sock stomping in similar footwear, though we’re not sure we fancy their style. Neon shoes plus neon high socks, all in the same shade, look like bright pink booties.

Thank goodness Rafa Nadal is around to pick up the style game, as he has always looked good in any rosy color, whether in tops, bottoms and those special bullhorn-marked custom shoes.

Another Swiss, “Stan the Man” Wawrinka, straps up in pink, a Yonex white-and-fuchsia pair named Eclipsion.

We wonder if the No. 4 seed deliberately chose to wear what best symbolizes his tennis ranking, as he has for some time eclipsed his legendary countryman.
