Wale performance caps Washington player party

The stars came out for the Mubadala Citi DC Open player party last Sunday, with rapper Wale and reigning Miss U.S. International Nicky Kandola joining a host of tennis talents for the festivities.

The party was hosted at Ned's Club in Washington, D.C., which boasts scenic views of the U.S. capital. A performance from Wale closed the evening and set the tone for an energetic week of tennis at the ATP 500 event.

The players on hand included Andrey Rublev, Lorenzo Musetti, Nick Kyrgios, Frances Tiafoe, Brandon Nakashima, Eugenie Bouchard, Jessica Pegula and Maria Sakkari, with local hero Tiafoe posing for a picture alongside Wale and tournament owner Mark Ein with the Washington Monument in the background.
