This week, Nike brought together 11 of the best professional female tennis players for a "Queens of the Future" experience on the streets of New York City to continue celebrating the growth of women in sport. On a pop-up tennis stadium located at William F. Passannante Ballfield on the corner of W. Houston and Avenue of Americas, athletes including Serena Williams, Naomi Osaka, Sloane Stephens, Simona Halep and Maria Sharapova took the court for a twist on a classic tennis training game with young "queens" from the United States Tennis Association and New York Junior Tennis & Learning.
