The ESPYs took place Thursday and just happened to be hosted by a tennis legend. That led tennis influencer/model Rachel Stuhlmann to show her excitement on social media.

For the record, Serena Winters was the host and Stuhlmann the fan.
"Flash back to last year at the ESPYs," she captioned a picture of herself at the 2023 event. " Can't wait to watch Serena Williams to host it tonight!"
Stuhlmann generally breaks out the announcements when she's excited about or attending an event. (And her fans are glad she does.)
Recently, she even let those fans know she would be attending the first World Pickleball Convention, making the announcement via her wildly popular Instagram page.
"I'm thrilled to be heading to the World Pickleball Convention next week in Vegas!" she wrote. "I can't wait to keep diving deeper into this rapidly growing sport and see all the different innovative pickleball businesses and fellow enthusiasts. I'm super pumped for the workshops, demonstrations, and instructional sessions. I'm also especially looking forward to watching the Expo and the pro & amateur tournaments. It's so fun to witness how much this sport has evolved since its inception!"

Stuhlmann once said that tennis and fashion were both incredibly important to her. So she decided to combine the two to become a model for the sport.
"Since I was young, tennis fashion has held a cherished spot in my heart," she wrote on her website. "Growing up, I'd spend hours sketching designs for tennis skirts, tops, and dresses, envisioning myself on the court in each creation. The graceful elegance of Maria Sharapova and the bold fierceness of Serena Williams served as constant inspirations, prompting me to consistently include 'Nike Court tennis dress' on my birthday and Christmas wish lists."
