As expected, the turnout for Serena Williams' final U.S. Open competition has been uncanny. 

Monday night’s match between Williams and Danka Kovinic attracted an incredible crowd, including stars like Hugh Jackman, Queen Latifah, Mike Tyson and Anthony Anderson (just to name a few).

And on Wednesday, we saw no different, as Williams battled the No. 2 player in the world, Anett Kontaveit of Estonia, during her second match of the Grand Slam competition. 

Stepping out into the Arthur Ashe Stadium was American director Spike Lee, who attended Williams’ Monday match, and Jeopardy champion Amy Schneider.

Also repeating Monday’s trend were Billie Jean King, a 12-time Major tennis champion whom the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center is named after, American journalist Anna Wintour and William’s husband Alexis Ohanian, who also brought their daughter.

Oh, and Anthony Anderson came back for a second night too!

Zendaya showed up to see the Queen of Queens.

Athletes came to support as well, including former professional basketball star Steve Nash and a long-time friend of Williams, 15-time major champion Tiger Woods.

Out of the 30,000 spectators sitting throughout Ashe, Governor of New York Kathy Hochul also came out to support.
