For years, the US Open has represented something more than tennis for Bridget Moynahan and her son Jack.
It has become a tradition.
Another tournament brings another opportunity for the mother and son to spend time together, sit courtside and add another photograph to a collection that quietly documents Jack growing up.
But when they returned in 2026, something looked very different.
Jack was no longer the little boy many people remembered from earlier family photographs.
He had just turned 19.
He was noticeably taller than his mother.
And once photographs from their latest outing appeared online, another conversation quickly followed.
Fans began debating which of his famous parents he resembles most.
Bridget and Jack Returned to the US Open Together
Moynahan, 55, attended the tournament in New York with Jack on Sunday, August 30.
The pair were photographed at the Emirates Suite while watching the action.
Both wore light-colored outfits.
Bridget completed her look with sunglasses and wore her hair pulled back.
Jack sat comfortably beside his mother while watching the match, occasionally reacting to what was happening on court.
Nothing about the outing appeared particularly unusual.
It was simply another year of a mother and son continuing something they enjoy doing together.
Then they stood next to each other.
That was when another detail became impossible to miss.
Jack Now Stands Considerably Taller Than His Mom
In photographs of the pair posing together, Jack appeared nearly a head taller than Bridget.
For people who remember photographs of him as a child, the contrast was striking.
