British tennis star
Katie Boulter has revealed that she
enjoyed the most on the court while playing alongside her boyfriend Australia’s
Alex de Minaur in the mixed doubles clash at
Wimbledon.
The 27-year-old, along with Minaur, were eventually knocked out
from the round of 16 clash at the event after losing to the pair of Joran Vliegen
Xu Yifan with a score of 6-3, 4-6, 7-6.
Boulter recently posted a video on her official Instagram
account and stated that playing with her boyfriend was the most enjoyable
experience on the court. "Most fun I've ever had on a tennis court," she
wrote.
Before the mega-event, Minaur stated back in July about the
reason why he opted to play in a category where he had never played before.
"I’ve been bugging her for a while to play,” he said. “We
said we would give it a go at least one time. It's going to be fun. I'm going
to enjoy it.”
Boulter, back then, also
stated that it was a mutual decision. "I think it's something we've both
wanted to do for quite some time," she said.
"I think we're both going to really enjoy it
and cherish it. It's not often that you get to have that experience together,
especially at Wimbledon."
