Tina Fey, Aaron Judge, And His Wife, Samantha Bracksieck Seated Together At U.S. Open
On the eighth day of the U.S. Open, Aaron Judge arrived at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
A white T-shirt by Rhode, a luxury meets streetwear brand founded by Rhuigi Villaseor in 2015, was initially spotted on the Yankees player along the Ivy Wall. He was posing for photos while wearing the shirt.
Later, he could be seen watching the fourth-round match between No. 2 Aryna Sabalenka and No. 13 Daria Kasatkina with his wife Samantha Bracksieck. They were also present for the Monday night matches between No. 12 Alexander Zverev and No. 6 Jannik Sinner.

In a box with Tina Fey, a former cast member of SNL, they were cheering.
In a video, Judge and his Yankees colleague Keynan Middleton can be seen emulating the traditional tennis victory celebration by pumping their fists in the air in front of the crowd.

Judge, 31, joins the exclusive group of adored New York players who have so far attended the Grand Slam tournament, including Jimmy Butler, Pete Alonso, Aaron Rodgers, and others.
After a two-month layoff due to a toe injury, the Yankees have recently benefited from what seems to be a typical Judge.
In the victory over the Astros on Saturday, the defending AL MVP blasted a 438-foot home run, his ninth long ball in his last 15 contests.

In addition, he demonstrated his ability to run at full speed by racing from first to third on a strong ground ball to right field from Jasson Dominguez and then bursting in to score on a sacrifice fly.
“I would say it’s gone as well as we could’ve hoped,” Aaron Boone, the manager of the Yankees, commented on Judge’s injury recovery. “I’ve been really pleased with how much he’s been able to play, how well he’s been able to play, and what I feel like is continued improvement just in his movement qualities.”
