WHAT IS
BEST OF TEN

What started as a love for tennis became, in Charlie & Caroline fashion, an opportunity for adventure. What if you could travel to all of the ATP & WTA 1000 tournaments and grand slams? Well, traveling to tennis tournaments doesn't pay the bills – it actually creates more of them. This wasn't going to be a one, two, or even three-year challenge. Just like a grand slam final tie break, this would be a race to ten with one goal in mind: find the best tennis tournament experience across 10 years — and document our travels, tips, and tricks.

Before 2024 — Charlie and Caroline attend the US Open and the Miami Open.

WHO IS DENISE?

Born from our brilliant niece Elliott, the best wedding gift we received came naturally from her: Denise. She's the perfect, most amazing, amusable Jellycat tennis ball companion every tennis fan born on Earth should own, know, and love [enjoy here].

As we continue our travels and work through Best of Ten, Denise serves as our third partner, an extension of our group and a memento of our time at each tournament — posing fabulously for photographs on center court to send to our niece.

Denise's personality extends far beyond photo opps. She plays a major role in our day-to-day tennis fandom. She hangs out with us in our living room, watches matches with us during late nights and early mornings year-round and has quietly become the heart of our tennis ritual.
