Boulter’s victory marked a significant milestone, as she had previously struggled on clay, a surface de Minaur playfully teased her about during her Italian Open run, per EssentiallySports.com. During the Paris ceremony, Boulter made a flirty dig at de Minaur’s own clay game, saying, “This trophy’s a bit heavy, bit like my fiancé’s clay game,” prompting de Minaur to respond lightheartedly, “Guess I’ll stick to hard courts, champ,” per Sportskeeda. Their playful banter, a hallmark of their relationship since 2020, delighted fans, with @TennisConnected on X noting their “adorable chemistry.”
De Minaur, the World No. 9, has been a constant supporter of Boulter, consoling her after losses like her 2024 Wimbledon defeat to Harriet Dart, per mirror.co.uk, and celebrating her successes, such as her 2025 Australian Open run, per news.com.au. Boulter’s Paris act, earning her $35,250 and a career-high No. 23 ranking, per wtatennis.com, has bolstered her Roland Garros prospects, while de Minaur’s heartfelt reaction underscores their mutual support as they navigate the tennis circuit as an engaged couple.[]
