Coric sparks Vekic dating rumours with cryptic Instagram post

Borna Coric has fed fire and fuel to the tennis gossip columns around the world after he posted a cryptic message about Donna Vekic.

Rumours linking a romance between the Croatian players have long occupied tennis circles and social media and Coric did nothing to dispel such tales with his Instagram post.

Vekic launched her interior fragrance brand DNNA in June 2021 and at the time said: “I want the design and fragrances to convey my message, reminding us of fragility, but also to encourage people to never give up. Every effort requires relaxation, every injury needs to be healed and every stress must be relieved – that is exactly what my products are for.”

ATP World No. 26 Coric took to the social media platform on Sunday to praise the Vekic brand and reveal he is apparently Vekic’s ‘style icon.’

Under an image with Coric showcasing the DNNA brand, he wrote: “It is not enough that you follow me wherever I go, now I bump into your candles everywhere @donnavekic.

Vekic replied with a love heart emoji.

The post attracted 5,632 likes and follow whispers that the couple are dating after Vekic was pictured in the Coric player box during his impressive run to the ATP1000 in Cincinnati in August.

Vekic, currently ranked at World No. 77 last featured on-court at the Tallinn Open in September, losing to Belinda Bencic at the quarter-final stage.

Her best Grand Slam result was at the 2019 US Open where she reached the quarter-finals.
