Carlos Alcaraz has added an undershirt to his US Open attire, addressing concerns that his revealing Nike tank top exposed "too much nipple." The distinctive brown Travis Scott x Cactus Jack collaboration had previously drawn significant attention, including numerous memes and playful commentary from former player Eugenie Bouchard.
For his third-round match on Arthur Ashe Stadium on Friday, August 4, 2026, Alcaraz wore a white undershirt beneath his kit. He confirmed this was his own decision, stating he felt more comfortable. Alcaraz secured a comfortable victory against China's Wu Yibing with a score of 6-3, 6-4, 6-1, advancing to the fourth round.
Returning from a four-month wrist injury layoff, the 23-year-old has been dominant, dropping only one set across his initial three matches. He is now set to face the 20th seed, American Tommy Paul, whom he has defeated in their last five encounters.
