Tennis ace Aryna Sabalenka made headlines at the 2024 US Open with her stunning victory over Jessica Pegula at the Arthur Ashe Stadium. However, it wasn’t just her victory that caught people’s attention, but also the presence of her boyfriend, Georgios Frangulis, courtside supporting her.
Georgios Frangulis, the man behind the success of Sabalenka, has been by her side since around April 2024. He has been a constant presence at her matches, starting from the Mutua Madrid Open in April, all the way to the Cincinnati Masters and now at the US Open. Sabalenka expressed her gratitude for his unwavering support, especially during tough times, saying, “There was a really tough period where I was really happy to have him by my side. Always cheering me up, always making sure that we are doing some fun stuff.”
Sabalenka’s emotional victory at the US Open marked her third Grand Slam triumph at the age of 26. She had previously won the Australian Open twice and made the semifinals of the US Open twice, as well as reaching the French Open in 2023 and Wimbledon twice. The Belarusian’s triumph was not only a testament to her skill on the court but also a reminder of the love and support she receives from Frangulis.
It is heartwarming to see the bond between Sabalenka and Frangulis flourishing both on and off the court. Their relationship seems to be a source of strength for Sabalenka, propelling her to greater heights in her tennis career. With Frangulis by her side, Sabalenka is not just a formidable player on the court, but also a champion in love.
