"I have to let Ajla Tomljanovic win otherwise we fight" jokes Matteo Berrettini

Matteo Berrettini and Alja Tomljanovic are a pretty famous tennis couple and the two can be oftentimes seen in each other boxes if their other commitments allow it.

Being in a relationship as a tennis pro is fairly tricky considering the amount of time they spend on the road, away from home. For Berrettini and Tomljanovic it's even trickier as the ATP and WTA calendar rarely overlaps and they seldom find time to spend with each other during the season. That is why they spend the majority of their time together in the offseason.

Sometimes they even play tennis together but Berrettini joked about their matches saying:

"Me and Ajla [Tomljanovic]? To be together we organize ourselves when we train I have to make her win, otherwise we fight and it's a mess!"

On spending time together he said:

"We see each other in tournaments, like the Australian Open. She lives in Florida, I live in Europe. It's complicated, but it's my life, I'm always [traveling] around."

Berrettini also touched upon the Austrlaian Open briefly saying:

"The audience at the Australian Open was different. It's important to have character but also to be respectful. At the Australian Open, after 4 hours of battle, I felt like I was full of adrenaline and energy and I wanted to vent. But I think it was appreciated."
