American tennis star Danielle Collins certainly enjoyed her Fourth of July weekend.
Collins, a Florida native, has been playing tennis professionally since 2016. Although she doesn't own a Grand Slam title, she reached the Australian Open final in 2022. The highlight of her career so far has to be her win over Elena Rybakina in the final of the 2024 Miami Open.
While she's usually known for her intensity on the court, Collins turned plenty of heads this past weekend for wearing a "Team USA" swimsuit on the beach.

Collins shared a pair of swimsuit photos that sent the tennis community into a frenzy.
"God bless America," fellow WTA member Carson Branstine wrote.
"Beach Collins > Tennis Collins," one fan commented.
"Serving on the court and the beach," a second fan said.
"Wow just wow," another fan replied.
Will we see Danielle Collins back on the court?
The initial plan for Collins was to miss at least the first half of the 2026 season.
"I've been taking the last few months off to recover from the back injury I had at the end of the season," Collins wrote on Instagram. "I've also been undergoing a few egg freezing procedures. It's been one of the coolest things I've honestly ever done! But at the same time these hormones I have had to be on are a real [expletive]. I am so fortunate for the friends that have been helping take care of me during this time. I have one more procedure to go."
Unfortunately for fans of Collins, they're still waiting for her hiatus to end.
Collins, 32, hasn't competed in a singles match since her first-round loss to Jaqueline Cristian at the 2025 US Open.
