The US Open<\/a> tennis tournament is finally here, and tennis fans have arrived at the NYC venue – the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center- for the two-week Grand Slam.<\/p>\n

Although she hasn’t been pictured this year, the Princess of Wales’\u00a0<\/a>younger sister, Pippa Middleton<\/a>, notably went to the sporting event back in 2012, wearing a delightful outfit for the occasion.<\/p>\n

Turning heads to watch Andy Murray\u00a0<\/a>play that year, the brunette beauty turned to a home-grown, British label, Phase Eight, rocking a glorious, canary yellow design – one of the brightest we’ve seen her sport.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The stunning shift dress featured a striking lace overlay, complete with a gentle, body-skimming fit. The warm ensemble was bold yet classic and ensured Pippa could be seen in the stands.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Accessorising perfectly, she stood tall in a pair of Russell & Bromley wedges and carried a handbag by one of her sister’s favourite brands, Kate Spade. Top marks.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She was joined at the match by Spencer Vegosen, then a 24-year-old Harvard graduate, whose father was president of the US Tennis Association. At the time of this throwback appearance, Pippa was almost 29 and had just launched her book: Celebrate: A Year of Festivities for Families and Friends.<\/p>\n

Pippa loves tennis<\/p>\n

Just like her sister Kate, Pippa has always been a huge tennis fan. The mother of three told Vanity Fair\u00a0<\/a>in 2013: “I first went to Wimbledon when I was eight years old and already a very keen tennis player.”<\/p>\n

Recalling the first time she went to the All England Lawn Tennis & Croquet Club, she further remarked: “During this first trip, I acted on my childish tennis dreams and bought myself a postcard of the women’s championship trophy, on which I wrote, ‘I will win this one day,’ with my signature below.”<\/p>\n

In the same\u00a0Vanity Fair interview, Pippa recounted a time when she and Kate queued for cut-price Wimbledon tickets, recalling when she queued “from five a.m on ‘People’s Sunday’ in 2004 with my sister for three hours and getting \u00a335 tickets on Centre Court; my first time ever,” she noted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The US Open tennis tournament is finally here, and tennis fans have arrived at the NYC venue –…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":65675,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[1858,9838,9839,9464,7018,463],"class_list":["post-65674","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-us-open","tag-fashion","tag-pippa-middleton","tag-pippa-middleton-style","tag-royal-fashion","tag-royal-style","tag-us-open"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65674","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=65674"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65674\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/65675"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=65674"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=65674"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=65674"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
