Jannik Sinner has a new girlfriend with internet sleuths uncovering “evidence” that he is dating a fellow tennis player.
The 22-year-old Sinner is enjoying a brilliant 2024 season as he made his Grand Slam breakthrough at the Australian Open when he defeated Daniil Medvedev in the final while he also rose to a career-high No 2 in the ATP Rankings on the back of his Miami Open title.
Following his rise over the past few months, Sinner has become a sensation off the court as well and he is easily one of the most-talked about players in sport globally.
But that also means there is now more interest in his private life and Sinner reportedly has a new girlfriend as he is dating tennis star Anna Kalinskaya, according to social media.
Sinner was in a long-term relationship with model and influencer Maria Braccini, although they took a break in 2021 only to reunite a few months later.
But it seems the pair have now gone their separate ways for good with social media detectives claiming Sinner is dating world No 25 Kalinskaya.
Sinner and Kalinskaya were first spotted in Turin just over a week ago when the Italian was receiving medical treatment on his hip at the Juventus medical centre.
But the sleuths have found more “proof” as the pair have also been spotted at a luxurious restaurant in Paris in recent days with Italian media reporting “They didn’t choose a table, but sat at the big bar the whole time, chatting very closely and trying not to be noticed.”
But the cherry on the cake in terms of “evidence” is a zoomed in photo of his Sinner’s phone with the name “Anna” reportedly appearing on it.
Don’t expect any confirmation about Sinner about his rumoured relationship with the 25-year-old Kalinskaya as he insisted last year that he will always keep his private life private.
“Whether or not I am with a girl will never be known on social media, because I want to keep my private life private,” the Italian said.
“I don’t need to post a photo to show whether I’m engaged. I never posted pictures with my parents, maybe one with my brother.”
Like Sinner, Kalinskaya is also enjoying the best season of her career as she rose to a career-high No 24 in February on the back of reaching her maiden WTA singles final at the Dubai Tennis Championships where she finished runner-up to Jasmine Paolini. She also reached the quarter-final of the Australian Open at the start of the year.
