Lara Spencer stays active even during the weekends, and it's certainly paying off!

Over the weekend, the Good Morning America anchor impressed fans as she revealed she had competed at the United States Tennis Association's (USTA) 2025 Tom Fey Tri-Level National Invitational in San Diego.

Following her exciting tennis match, Lara took to Instagram and shared a round of photos from it, starting off with one in which she has her hand up in the air and is smiling, wearing a Penn State sweatshirt and navy gym shorts.

"Big win last night at USTA Tri-Level Nationals in San Diego with my amazing partner @sarafwatts!" Lara excitedly announced in her caption.

She added: "Here with Team New England fighting for a spot in the semis. (And repping my PENN STATE on the court for good luck)."
