The organizers of Roland Garros have announced that dress standards will be introduced for the next edition of the tournament. This decision was taken after the controversy created around the black jumpsuit worn by Serena Williams during a match in Paris this year.

Bernard Guidicelli, president of the French Federation, justified this decision, considering that "we had to respect the game and the place". For her first US Open match, played on Monday, Serena Williams again chose a surprising outfit: black tutu and leather jacket.
