Aryna Sabalenka spotted hand-in-hand with new boyfriend at F1 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix

Belarusian tennis star Aryna Sabalenka was seen walking hand-in-hand with her new boyfriend, Georgios Frangulis, at the F1 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix. Sabalenka, who recently suffered a loss in the final of the Rome Open against Iga Swiatek (2-6, 3-6), appeared to have moved on from her defeat. This marked her second consecutive loss in a WTA 1000 final to Swiatek, following a defeat at the Madrid Open two weeks earlier.

Despite the setback, the world No. 2 shared cheerful photos from the Grand Prix the day after her Rome loss. She attended the event with Frangulis, a race car driver and the founder of Oakberry Acai Bowls.

Frangulis was present in Sabalenka’s box during the final against Swiatek and was mentioned by Sabalenka in her speech during the award ceremony: "And just like I promised, Georgios, thank you for your support," she said.
