One of the star attractions at the Garden Cup 2024 in NYC will be Emma Navarro. As one of the brightest talents from the United States, many eyes will be fixated on her in the coming days. Ahead of the much-talked-about marquee event, Navarro received a major boost.
She posted on Instagram about arriving in New York City from Charleston to gear up for the event. In the promotional shoot video, she was seen receiving a Knicks jersey. Originally from New York, it is no surprise that Navarro would cheer for the Knicks in the NBA. Receiving their jersey upon arrival will be a special way to begin preparations for the event.
With that, tennis got some good publicity as Madison Square Garden, the Knicks’ home venue, wishes to sell out all the 19,500 seats before the matches begin.
Navarro has become a popular name in the country after a 2024 season that saw her make it to the semifinals of a Grand Slam for the first time in her career – that too in front of her home crowd (US Open).
She is trying hard to get rid of the ‘billionaire heiress’ tag. Being one of the daughters of Charleston’s banking czar, Ben Navarro has undoubtedly helped Emma in her tennis journey so far. But the fact that the Knicks honored her with their jersey shows that she is becoming successful in making a name of her own in sport.

The event will take place on Wednesday, December 4, 2024, at 7 pm ET onwards. Navarro’s opponent will be Jessica Pegula. The 30-year-old American is another breakout performer from the United States on the WTA Tour this season, making it to the final at the Arthur Ashe Stadium for the first time in her career.
Among the men, Ben Shelton is expected to win a lot of support even though his opponent is set to be the 4-time Grand Slam champion, Carlos Alcaraz. Shelton and Alcaraz are two youngsters who are expected to take the sport to greater heights in the future. Both have an enterprising, dynamic style of play, which entertains fans across the world.
Both matches are expected to grab a lot of eyeballs as the focus of the tennis world will once again be on the United States as the season comes to an end. But to watch the action live, here is how fans can buy tickets for the Garden Cup 2024.
