During the game at the US Open on Tuesday between Andy Murray and Nick Kyrgios, a major dispute occured in the posh President's Suite of Arthur Ashe Stadium over its dress code. According to the host of a VIP charity event, the United States Tennis Association President, Katrina Adams, has "a faded jeans fetish."

According to Page Six, Steve Osman of Metropolitan Pacific Properties and the host of an annual US Open benefit, which has been occurring for 18 years, had an unpleasant run-in with Katrina Adams, the United States Tennis Association President. This run-in caused Osman, his 86-year-old mother and a friend to leave.

Osman's friend, Luka Cardillo, a former male model, was prohibited from entering the President's Suite because he was wearing jeans, specifically "faded jeans."

"I told her, 'I'm wearing gray jeans. There are people here wearing dark jeans,' " Osman says. "She said, 'No! He's wearing faded jeans.'"

According to Osman, Cardillo's jeans cost $600, and he was wearing them with a Prada blazer. Guess expensive designer jeans paired with an expensive designer blazer aren't a part of Adams' dress code. She said, "It's my rules!"

Osman also stated that he was unaware of the no-jeans aspect of the dress code. He claimed that Adams "cared more about faded jeans than giving money to kids." He then clarified his disappointment by saying, "I couldn't get over her rudeness. I don't have a problem with the USTA. I have a problem with this woman."

On the flip side, a representative from USTA said: "We have a dress code ... a no-jeans policy. Mr. Osman, according to people at the front desk, became the 'single rudest person' they ever dealt with ... They were shaken." According to this rep, when they called Adams, Osman "began to 'educate' her on his generosity" saying, "Do you know who I am?"

Yikes. Someone's clearly lying...
