Carota Boys: Sinner's carrot-clad superfans at the US Open

The Carota Boys have been in the spotlight for setting fan goals in the sports' world

The Carota Boys is a group of six fans dressed in carrot costumes who support the Italian tennis player Jannick Sinner

Enrico, Francesco Gaboardi, Alessandro Dedominici, Alberto Mondino, Lorenzo Ferrato, and Gianluca Bertorello from Italy, together make the Carota Boys fan group

The carrot costumes donned by the Carota Boys is inspired by Sinner's orange hair

 Another reason why they wear the carrot costume is that Sinner ate only carrots during the ATP tournament in Vienna in 2019

The famous fan group of Carota Boys was spotted inside the Louis Armstrong Stadium on August 2 during the US Open match between Jannick Sinner and Stan Wawrinka

They were seen cheering and clapping for Sinner during the match in carrot costumes

After winning in four sets, during his in-court interview, Jennik Sinner thanked the Carota Boys and said, "It means a lot"

The Italian player even met the Carota Boys and clicked a selfie with them after the match. Take a look at the special fan moment

The Carota Boys frequently take to Instagram to share pics and videos. Here's a video of Sinner-fans having fun during their visit to New York for the US Open

They also appeared at the Rome Masters, Roland Garros and Wimbledon earlier to support Sinner

The Carota Boys were first seen at the ATP Masters 1000 tournament in Rome back in May earlier this year

 Here's a picture of the fan group posing in front of the Eiffel Tower from the time they attended Roland Garros
