Stefanos
Tsitsipas shared a heartfelt message for his girlfriend,
Paula Badosa.
It has been
nearly two months since the Greek tennis player and the Spanish woman started
sharing photos and videos together, subsequently confirming their relationship.
The couple has captured the attention of fans.
Taking to
his Instagram account, under the handle 'Tsidosa,' the Greek star shared an
emotional message dedicated to Paula Badosa:
“Distance
means nothing when someone means everything," said
Stefanos Tsitsipas.
“The truth
is, I've never been very explicit about these things or exposed myself too
much, but when you know, you really don't care,” he added.
There's no
shame, it's like family. It's a bit like sharing moments with your family. It's
exactly the same feeling," Tstitsipas said during an Instagram Q&A
session.
The tennis
couple has a tight schedule that often requires them to be apart due to their
respective tournament commitments. Currently, Badosa is recovering from an
injury and has not played since the Rome Open, where she suffered a defeat
against Jelena Ostapenko with a score of 2-6, 6-4, 3-6.
Following
the match, Badosa announced that she would not be participating in the French
Open. While she had plans to return to
Wimbledon and even compete in the mixed
doubles alongside her boyfriend Tsitsipas, the former world No. 2 did not fully
recover from her injury and decided to withdraw from the tournament.
On the
other hand, Tsitsipas is set to return to action this week after his exit from
Wimbledon in the fourth round. He faced a surprising defeat against Cristopher
Eubanks, losing with a score of 3-6, 7-6(4), 3-6, 6-4, 6-4.
The Greek
tennis star will make his debut on Wednesday at the ATP 250
Los Cabos Open in
the second round. As the top seed, he received a bye in the first round.
The
tournament features other prominent players like Cameron Norrie, Tommy Paul,
Alex de Minaur, and Nicolas Jarry. In his first match, Tsitsipas will be facing
the American John Isner, who successfully advanced through the first round.
