For Sloane Stephens, giving back isn’t something separate from success. It’s part of what success means. Through the Sloane Stephens Foundation, she continues to dream bigger for the young people in her community, creating pathways to college, encouraging participation in tennis and helping young people build the confidence, wellness and skills to succeed on and off the court.
As Sloane puts it, she believes she was put on this earth not only to be a good tennis player, but to be a good steward of her community. Tonight, at the USTA Foundation’s Opening Night Gala at the US Open Tennis Championships, we’ll proudly celebrate that commitment by presenting Sloane with our 2026 Serving Up Dreams Award. We can’t think of a more fitting way to honor someone who understands that opportunities can change lives and has dedicated herself to creating more of them. :blue_heart:
