Candice Warner looked very leggy as she stepped out with her daughters to meet world tennis number one Aryna Sabalenka on Thursday.
Candice, 39, was the fangirl through and through when she met the Belarusian tennis player, 29, during her practice session in Melbourne.
The wife of cricket legend Dave Warner put on a very leggy show in a flirty mini tennis dress with wrap-around detailing at the waist.
She embraced tennis-chic fashion as she got comfortable in a pair of white sneakers and kept her essentials in a Louis Vuitton shoulder bag.
Candice shielded her eyes with a pair of Balenciaga sunglasses and carried water bottles with her to stay hydrated in the sultry climes.
The doting mum was joined by her three daughters – Ivy Mae, 10, Indi Rae, nine, and Isla Rose, five – as they gathered for a meet-and-greet with tennis pro Aryna.

Candice, 39, got into the sporting spirit when she met the Belarusian tennis player, 29, during her practice session in Melbourne.
The doting mum was joined by her three daughters – Ivy Mae, 10, Indi Rae, nine, and Isla Rose, five – who were all thrilled to meet their tennis idol Aryna.
Candice couldn’t wipe the smile off her face as she joined the large crowd to meet Aryna before taking the court for her Australian Open training.
She managed to get Aryna to autograph some giant tennis balls for her delighted daughters, while they also all posed for sweet photos together.
Candice took to Instagram to share the photos of her three daughters grinning widely as their dreams came true by meeting their ‘tennis idol’.
The former ironwoman and surf lifesaver wrote in a caption: “The girls got to know the world and their tennis idol today.
“It was so inspiring to watch her practice and see how her team handles everything. I always teach the girls to dream big.
“Today is different on so many levels and it’s moments like these that leave a lasting impact on the next generation.”
Candice’s daughters are certainly following in their parents’ sporting footsteps as they are both passionate tennis and cricket players.
The best tennis professionals in the world have flocked to Melbourne for the Australian Open grand slam, which officially starts on Sunday.

Candice was every bit the doting mother she was as she took her three tennis-obsessed daughters to meet their hero Aryna
Candice couldn’t wipe the smile off her face as she gathered among the large crowds to meet Aryna before taking the court for her Australian Open training.
Aryna is the big favorite to win the women’s crown and will defend the title she won in 2023 and 2024.
Former world number 1 Ash Barty tipped Aryna for big success this time, but also believes American Coco Gauff and China’s Zheng Qinwen could be in the running.
“One of the most important qualities she has developed is great consistency,” she told The Age.
‘Besides, the Australian Open is of course hers. Aryna now plays very comfortably in the latter stages of slams, equipped with the right temperament.”
However, Ash picked a first-time winner to take home the title at the world-famous tennis tournament.
‘But who’s my tip to win? “I have chosen world number six and former Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina,” she continued.
“I think she is ideally placed to go one step further in Melbourne after being defeated in an epic three-set final against Sabalenka two years ago.”
Ash also revealed who she thinks will win in men’s tennis this year – and she tipped a rather unlikely star.
She managed to get Aryna to sign some giant tennis balls for her delighted daughters during the short meet-and-greet session on the court.

As Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic battle for victory, Ash said she believes Italian Daniil Medvedev (pictured) will become a winner for the first time this year
Italian world number 1 Jannik Sinner took his first Major crown at last year’s event and is the favorite to do so again this time.
Meanwhile, Serbian ace Novak Djokovic will aim to claim his 25th career Grand Slam – and, astonishingly, his 11th title at Melbourne Park.
Although Ash, who has won three Grand Slam women’s singles titles, believes both players will be difficult to beat, she predicts a first winner this year.
“I think it’s Daniil Medvedev’s time in Melbourne,” she told The Age. ‘Get ready. It’s going to be a huge few weeks.”
