Jannik Sinner’s 2024 season was nothing short of remarkable, both on and off the court. Dominating the tennis world with eight titles and finishing the year as ATP World No. 1, Sinner’s professional success was matched by his headline-grabbing relationship with WTA star Anna Kalinskaya. The couple, who began dating in early 2024, captured fans’ hearts with moments of public affection, such as their viral kiss after Sinner’s US Open victory over Taylor Fritz. However, by the end of the year, rumors of a breakup started circulating as their social media interactions dwindled.
The relationship, confirmed by Sinner during the French Open in May 2024, was kept largely private, as the Italian ace expressed his desire to maintain confidentiality about his personal life. Despite this, glimpses into their romance were shared, such as their romantic vacation in Porto Cervo, Italy, after Sinner’s US Open triumph.
Speculation about the couple’s status increased after Sinner’s interview with Esquire in August, where he shared that relationships can either enhance or hinder one’s mood, leading to assumptions that they might be taking a break. Adding fuel to the rumors, the couple’s Instagram activity—or lack thereof—had fans guessing about their current relationship.
Nonetheless, as the 2025 Australian Open approached, the couple seemingly reconnected. They were spotted sharing a warm embrace at Melbourne Park, signaling that despite rumors, there may still be affection between them. While both focus on their respective tennis careers—Sinner preparing to defend his title in Melbourne and Kalinskaya competing in the Brisbane International—their relationship continues to captivate the tennis world.
