Tennis Player Carson Branstine Sizzles In Swimsuit Photo

Women's tennis player Carson Branstine is going viral right before the Wimbledon Championships for the second year in a row.

Branstine turned heads at Wimbledon last year by defeating French Open semifinalist Lois Boisson, former US Open champion Bianca Andreescu and Raluca Georgiana Serban in qualifiers. She then lost to world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka in the opening round of the main draw.

"This sport has given me everything," Branstine said at Wimbledon. "It gave me a free college education. My best friends play tennis. I've gotten to see the world and travel the world, not just as a tourist, but with a purpose. And that's something I take to heart, a lot. I really enjoy this game. It's giving me everything and I think that's why in some of these big moments, I was able to pull through in the last few weeks because I really enjoy being out there. It's so much fun."

Branstine hasn't compete in a match since qualifiers at the Australian Open. After picking up a win over Astra Sharma, she retired mid-match against Daria Snigur. Unfortunately, we haven't see her on the WTA Tour since January.

Judging by Branstine's latest Instagram post, she seems to be doing just fine.

Branstine shared a photo of her holding a guitar while wearing a bikini. Unsurprisingly, she received plenty of love from her peers.

"Ok I see you," women's tennis player Eva Lys commented.

"She can play the guitar," women's tennis star Victoria Mboko wrote.

Branstine reached a career-high ranking of No. 172 back in October of last season.

Hopefully, we'll see Branstine back on the court at some point this year. If not, fans will have to wait until the 2027 season.
