The Former World No. 3 traveled to the African nation for an exhibition tour called the Africa Cares Women’s Tennis Challenge. However, since the event has been postponed, she has occupied herself with picnics, safaris, and other fun activities.
Stephens has been engaging with her fans on social media by posting plenty of pictures and videos from her holiday. The American’s latest picture shows her posing in fancy attire.
“Vacation looks good on me,” the 29-year-old captioned her post.

Her best result at the Majors was reaching the French Open quarterfinals before losing to Coco Gauff. Her final outing of the year also came in Guadalajara, where she made the quarterfinals of the WTA 1000 event before losing to eventual champion Jessica Pegula in straight sets.
