Looking like either a Ghostbuster, the Green Lantern, a presenter at the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards, Jack Nicholson after he falls in the toxic waste in Tim Burton’s Batman or a walking, talking chunk of kryptonite, Rafael Nadal took the court on Wednesday for his second round match at the U.S. Open wearing some sort of neon green monstrosity evidently designed by someone at Nike who had gone temporarily color blind.

I don’t even know what to say beyond that. When Nadal won the first set in an unexpected tiebreaker he did this jumping fist-pump thing that I could only interpret as excitement that he’d soon be able to take off that outfit.
Shaky set. Happy celebration. pic.twitter.com/wnwTq7FSb3

If Nadal should hold on to win his second rounder against Diego Schwartzman, your corneas should pray he gets a night-session match in the third round. That evening kit was far less blinding and didn’t make you instinctively crave a Hi-C Ecto Cooler.
