Following the success of the new movie 'Barbie', several tennis superstars have gotten involved in the hype, as they tried to designate the Barbies and Kens of tour.
During the
DC Open, several players were asked to discuss which players they could see playing the role of Barbie or Ken. The responses were not as different as one would have thought.

Norwegian tennis star
Casper Ruud was the most popular answer by the ATP players when asked who could portray Ken. Although
Frances Tiafoe did nominate Christopher Eubanks, while
Andy Murray selected Matteo Berrettini.
On the WTA side, there was a huge difference in opinion.
Coco Gauff chose Paula Badosa to play Barbie, while Sloane Stephens selected Gauff. Daria Kasatkina named Elena Rybakina as a good fit for Barbie, whereas Elina Svitolina named Stephens.
