With the U.S. Open about to kick off next week, tennis has taken over New York City. So of course, the hottest stars of the sport would be hanging out with Big Apple social butterfly Jill Zarin. 

How to Watch

The Real Housewives of New York City alum was caught up with Rafael Nadal, who will be competing in this year's U.S. Open, during an event at the Lotte New York Palace Thursday. "I'm in love! I think he looks like Tom cruise!" Jill gushed on Instagram. "Good luck my new friend!"

We all know how fierce Jill is on the court, so we can only imagine that she and Nadal swapped pro tips during their hangout sesh.

Jill also got to see Nadal take on fellow tennis great Venus Williams in a friendly (or intense, by the looks of the below photo) game of badminton.

What happened to @venuswilliams ? At @newyorkpalace !
