Aryna Sabalenka gets sad about her & boyfriend Georgios’ vacation being cut short despite reaching Berlin QF
Aryna Sabalenka Laments Shoorld No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka expressed bittersweet feelings about her abbreviated Mykonos vacation with boyfriend Georgios Frangulis after advancing to the Berlin Ladies Open quarterfinals with a 6-2, 7-6(6) win over Rebeka Masarova, per News18. In a post-match interview, Sabalenka quipped, “I wish I was still in Mykonos, having fun, enjoying my vacation, but here I am in Berlin,” reflecting her longing for more downtime following her French Open final loss to Coco Gauff on June 7, per @TheTennisLetter. The brief Greek getaway, where she shared loved-up photos with Frangulis, was cut short as she arrived in Germany to prepare for the WTA 500 grasscourt event, per Sportskeeda.
Despite her sadness, Sabalenka’s focus shone through in Berlin, where she navigated a controversial match suspension against Masarova due to slippery conditions, per Daily Mail. She faces Elena Rybakina next on June 20, aiming to build momentum for Wimbledon after last year’s shoulder injury forced her withdrawal, per The Athletic. Fans on X, like @leo_on_tour, noted her visibly tired eyes, attributing it to the quick transition from vacation to competition. Sabalenka’s candid remarks highlight the emotional toll of her demanding schedule, yet her 41-8 2025 record underscores her resilience, per WTA Tennis.
