Paula Badosa is in Mallorca preparing for Wimbledon and she practised under the watchful eye of Apostolos Tsitsipas.
The Spanish No. 1 on the WTA Tour and Stefanos Tsitsipas are dating for some time now. It was something that dominated tennis news for days making it very hard to miss. After sparking dating rumours, the duo confirmed their relationship, becoming the new darling couple of tennis.
Badosa was previously in a high-profile relationship with Cuban model Juan Betancourt who was always present for her matches. They seemed in for the 'long run' but they ultimately split, with the Spanish tennis player confirming their split. After announcing the new relationship, Badosa and Tsitsipas spent some time in her home base of Dubai.
The Greek made his way to Europe for the Stuttgart and Halle tournaments where he didn't really wow anybody with his tennis. He then made his way to Mallorca where he won a trophy last year and Badosa joined him there.
The Spanish player hasn't played in a long time with her previous match coming on May 17th at the Italian Open. Her Wimbledon participation is in question but the hope is that she'll recover in time as she's been spending time on the courts lately.
Cameras spotted the Spanish player in Mallorca on the courts with none other than Apostolos Tsitsipas, the father of Stefanos Tsitsipas. The long-time coach was seen watching Badosa practice and then actually hit with her until Tsitispas junior came and took over. It was an interesting scene considering that Badosa has her own coach.
She seems to be very familiar with the family of Tsitsipas already which kind of makes sense because they've been bumping into each other for years. The relationship seems to move quite fast and it's interesting to see the two trying to improve each other's game along the way.
