Do People Wear Tennis Bracelets While Playing Tennis? A History of the Tennis Bracelet

The tennis bracelet is a timeless piece of jewelry that seamlessly blends elegance with versatility. Its journey from the tennis courts to becoming a staple in fashion is both fascinating and inspiring.

In the late 1970s, tennis legend Chris Evert was known for her impeccable style on and off the court. During a match at the 1978 U.S. Open, Evert's diamond bracelet accidentally fell off, prompting her to pause the game until it was retrieved. This incident brought widespread attention to the accessory, leading to its popularization as the 'tennis bracelet.'

Following Evert's influence, many athletes began embracing jewelry as part of their on-court attire. Players like Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova have been spotted wearing diamond bracelets during matches, showcasing that functionality and fashion can coexist in sports.
