Precious gems
World No.3 Milos Raonic will be wearing green and blue for the first Grand Slam of the year, teaming a classic pair of navy shorts with the aptly named Yarra Crew in vivid jade.
Named after the river that runs through Melbourne, the collection also features the Yarra Tank in jewel, which will be worn by British No.2 Heather Watson and American Nicole Gibbs.
All three athletes will be wearing the New Balance 996v3, featuring the first ever knit, nylon-infused upper; an innovative, form-fitting fabric design that is heat-fused for strength and durability. The v3 also includes a newly designed PROBANK to improve lateral stability.
The Australian Open starts on January 16.
