"This is not true": Anna Kalinskaya moves to deny 'fake rumours' about engagement to Jannik Sinner
ATP
Anna Kalinskaya has been forced to deny rumours that have spread in Italy from a publication that her and boyfriend World No.1, Jannik Sinner are engaged only months after getting together.
Sinnerskaya as they are known got together back in May with the duo having a fairly forward facing relationship given Sinner's want previously to keep his private life out of the spotlight. He was seen kissing her at the US Open final after he sealed the title.
Albeit compared to his previous relationships given that Kalinskaya is a top 15 player in her own right in the WTA, it is a bit difficult to keep it private. So much so that wild reports in Italy seemed to say that the duo got engaged after he won the US Open earlier this summer which she laughed off on Instagram.

According to reports in Italy from publication, DiPiu, the couple decided to get engaged at a party in New York after his US Open victory they wrote which has since been debunked as well as chatter about a pregnancy.
"And if to avoid all this I asked you to marry me?" said Sinner according to the report.
"I would tell you that I want to," Kalinskaya reportedly responded.
But Kalinskaya laughed off this report as 'fake rumours' taking to her Instagram story to say in both English and Russian: "To clarify things about fake rumours, this is not true," she wrote with Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It) as the background music by Beyonce alluding to what rumours she was going on about.
Sinner is still in Shanghai as he saw off Tomas Martin Etcheverry earlier today in a scare. While Kalinskaya is facing Peyton Stearns again who retired with injury in their last tie just last week. They play in Wuhan.

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Having spent weeks and weeks through the years on tour, I can say with confidence that Conchita was (is) one of the very few who realize the surprising level of maturity (and sometimes lack of) which Mirra seems to have developed in such a demanding adult world of Pro-Tennis. While at the same time reminding herself (Conchita, that is) that Mirra is still young and developing mentally and physically. The general public may forget at times, or not at all realize, these modern era young athletes do not have a 'normal' Youth. It's a major sacrifice, among countless sacrifices, these athletes must make. People who blow-off that fact are ignorant and unfair when they blurt out, "They choose fame so they have to put up with the intrusions on their lives". No, they do not.
mandoist05-11-2026 - Okay... someone with a camera was EAVESDROPPING on a private conversation. Shouldn't that be the point of discussion here? Regardless of the sensationalist crap by media, Pegula (and anyone) has a right to an opinion. There used to be an expectation that private conversations were respected, regardless of 'stardom' and whatever other defensive excuses media tries to shove in our faces. Boo-hoo if feelings are hurt. BTW: Having been employed at various tourney venues, etc., I can't tell you how nasty and offensive players can be when discussing their opponents and colleagues... in "private". Well, I could, but won't. I also challenge anyone to deny what Jessica said is false.mandoist05-11-2026
