"It’s kinda sad": Anna Kalinskaya faces criticism on social media after liking pictures of Donald Trump

Russia’s Anna Kalinskaya has been criticised for liking Donald Trump’s content. The 26-year-old has been dating the reigning world number one Italy’s Jannik Sinner for a while and the two are regarded as one of the most powerful couples in the circuit.

A post on the social media platform X — previously known as Twitter — showed Kalinskaya’s close relationship with the family of the current president of the United States. That post sparked a negative reaction from the fans on the social media platform.

"Kalinskaya is very fond of the Trump family #AO2025 #AusOpen," was the post of the fan who shared pictures of Kalinskaya with Trump. "It’s kinda sad when you realize that most tennis players are conservative af," a fan responded. they wrote on X. "Sport fans when they discover their very much disgustingly rich favorite tennis player is indeed leaning to a party that benefits the rich," another one mentioned. "No wonder why she is suddenly friends with alexandra. worst wag finding another worst wag then," another fan stated.

Kalinskaya had a poor start to her 2025 season as she was forced to miss the first Grand Slam of the year in Australia because of a fitness concern. That tournament, however, was an impressive one for her boyfriend Sinner, who ended up defending his title after beating world number two Germany’s Alexander Zverev in the final in straight sets with a score of 6-3, 7-6, 6-3. Kalinskaya is currently participating in the ongoing Singaporean Open, where she booked her place in round 16 after beating Caroline Dolehide with a score of 6-4, 4-6, 6-2.
