Here s a rule worth noting in time for the U.S. Open this weekend: If you want a side of glamour with your serve, invite Beyoncé to your tennis match. In addition to supporting friend (and Lemonade scene-stealer) Serena Williams at Wimbledon in July, the singer made an appearance at last night s game alongside husband Jay Z—and took the opportunity to show her skills in the art of serious courtside beauty prowess.

Beyoncé ditched her trademark texture for a date night–ready blowout—fastened high at the crown—that cascaded over her shoulders. The half-up style revealed an earful of silver hoops, while keeping the focus on her glowing skin. Given her weakness for stage-worthy scene-stealing moments and dramatic flair—as demonstrated on Sunday night during her knockout VMAs performance—it only makes sense that the icon would bring her A-game to the tennis tournament. The final verdict? A hands-down beauty ace.
