Best dressed at Rate Vegas Cup presented by Holland America

The pros stepped up their fashion game at the Rate Vegas Cup presented by Holland America, and while Hayden Patriquin, Meghan Dizon, and Tyler Loong were among those who impressed me with their fits, the players who made the list really stood out from the pack.

Here are the best dressed players from the PPA Tour's latest stop in Sin City.

Mari Humberg and Allyce Jones

Humberg and Jones are simply pretty in pink. Jones wore a fitted white skirt from alo and a sporty pink zipper top, while Humberg put her own spin on the pink and white color pallet with a pink diamond tank from Adidas and a white skirt with this wave texture. This women’s dubs duo dressed for success with protective eyewear, too.

Ben Johns

I don’t go too easy on Johns’ fashion choices because I'm not a fan of the compression leggings and shorts over the top combo he often sports in too many colors. But, this look is a win for me! Johns kept it so clean in JOOLA. I love the crisp white polo, white sleeves, socks, and hat. Paired with mauve shorts and white and gray court shoes, this is such a good look for the G.O.A.T.

Like his men’s dubs partner, I must acknowledge Tardio’s white t-shirt and maroon shorts outfit that is such a nice switch from his usual all-black looks. Maroon is very on trend, and I like how he kept the styling simple with white and gray socks and shoes. It’s cool, it’s sleek, and Tardio looks like a champ in this fit. 


Genie Bouchard

Bouchard made quite the women’s singles run in Nevada. Clad head to toe in New Balance, this cobalt blue razor back tank top with white accents, paired with a fitted white skirt, is so elegant. And the navy blue court shoes and matching blue crew socks are just so cute. I’m definitely using this outfit as my inspo the next time I'm planning a trip to the court.

Tyra Hurricane Black

The standout here is the color. Oh, how I adore this rich gorgeous red color on Black! Wearing a fitted tank, pleated skirt, matching red Nike visor, and red hair bow, the details in accessorizing are just a win. Topped with a pearl necklace and dangly earrings, she just looks like a superstar. 

Kiora Kunimoto

This marks Kunimoto’s first appearance on the Best Dressed List, and this is a chic way to make an entrance. Kunimoto wore flowy black shorts from Selkirk, a red fitted tank, and white socks and shoes from Nike. What I like most about this fit is that it perfectly matches her paddle. And she has lots of fun jewelry on to accessorize. 

Jaume Martinez Vich

Martinez Vich isn’t one for crazy fashion choices, but I really liked this look from him. This Adidas t-shirt is the standout because of the subtle diamond pattern that’s not overly distracting, but a cool step up from a basic black shirt. Paired with black shorts and a black hat, Martinez Vich served up a good look here.  

Lauren Stratman

Stratman knows how to keep her pickleball fashion so timeless, and I love this black and white fit from her. The clear standout piece is the back of her black tank top. From the front, it’s a classic fitted tank, but on the back, it has this strappy design that’s so pretty. Styled with white Asics court shoes and a black visor, she's dressed beautifully. 

Honorable mention: The Young Professor

The MC from the tournament deserved a shoutout thanks to his dazzling suits and studded loafers. A 10 out of 10 look!
