Overview

• Osaka reached the quarterfinals with a 6-3, 6-2 win over Coco Gauff, then unveiled a silver Labubu named Althea Glitterson and joked in a video that it was “24 carat gold.”
• She has brought a different Labubu to each match—Billie Jean Bling, LaBillieBu, Arthur Flashe and Althea Glitterson—explicit nods to Billie Jean King, Arthur Ashe and Althea Gibson.
• The U.S. Tennis Association confirmed it printed a credential for Billie Jean Bling but said the pass does not work with entrance scanners.
• According to lifestyle reports, some pieces were custom-crystallized by designer Kerin Rose Gold’s A-Morir, with about 3,000 stones and cited pricing of roughly $250–$495.
• Osaka has said the Labubu idea started as a joke and that she is not a collector, and she is slated to face Karolína Muchová in the quarterfinals.
