Paula Badosa expressed her feelings on Instagram Story on the occasion of Stefanos Tsitsipas’ 26th birthday. Tsitsipas, who turned 26 on August 12th, received well wishes from fans and fellow players. Badosa, his girlfriend, took to Instagram Story to share a heartfelt message.
Tsitsipas and Badosa have been in a relationship since last year and have garnered attention from both fans and the media. Their public displays of affection and frequent sharing of pictures and videos on social media have made them a topic of discussion. However, some critics believe that their relationship has affected Tsitsipas’ performance on the court, as they feel he has been distracted.
Meanwhile, Badosa has been dealing with back stress problems. Despite their ups and downs, the couple broke up in May but later reconciled. On Tsitsipas’ birthday, Badosa posted three romantic pictures to wish him.
After their amicable breakup and subsequent reunion, Tsitsipas explained his decision to end things with Badosa. He felt that the pressure of being in a relationship while playing tennis was taking a toll on him. He also realized that being with Badosa was different from his previous relationships and described her as someone who provided him with significant support. Badosa, during a press conference, mentioned that they have decided to keep their relationship private compared to last year.
Tsitsipas will be playing his first match at the Cincinnati Open against Jan-Lennard Struff on August 13, while Badosa will also kick-start her campaign on the same day against Peyton Stearns from America. Prior to Cincinnati, both players participated in the Canadian Open, but unfortunately, they were defeated by Jelena Ostapenko and Kei Nishikori, respectively.
