Jannik Sinner rumored to be in DMs of SI swimsuit model Brooks Nader after her sisters drop not-so-cryptic hint
New York, August 28, 2025 — Jannik Sinner, the world No. 1 and defending US Open champion, is at the center of romance rumors with Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model Brooks Nader, sparked by her sisters’ not-so-subtle hints during a radio appearance. As Sinner prepares for his second-round match against Alexei Popyrin at the 2025 US Open, the off-court buzz, following his 6-1, 6-1, 6-2 rout of Vit Kopriva, has fans speculating about a potential new love interest, adding intrigue to his dominant campaign.
The Cryptic Hint and Rumors
During an August 26 appearance on Sirius XM’s *Page Six Radio*, Nader’s sisters—Mary Holland, Grace Ann, and Sarah Jane—teased that Brooks, recently single after splitting from *Dancing with the Stars* pro Gleb Savchenko, is messaging a tennis star whose name “rhymes with winner” (*Sportskeeda.com*, August 28, 2025). Brooks, a 2023 SI Swimsuit cover model, coyly admitted to having “a little roster” of suitors but didn’t deny the Sinner connection, fueling speculation (*TheSpun.com*). Sinner, who confirmed his single status in May 2025 after parting with tennis pro Anna Kalinskaya, has remained tight-lipped, focusing on his title defense (*Yahoo Sports*). Fans on X erupted, with one post exclaiming, “Jannik Sinner in Brooks Nader’s DMs? Power couple alert!” (@TennisVibes, August 27, 2025), while another quipped, “Sinner’s winning on and off the court!” (@TennisFanUSA, August 27, 2025).
Sinner’s Focus Amid Personal Speculation
Sinner’s private life has drawn attention before, with past rumors linking him to Russian model Lara Leito and Danish influencer Laila Hasanovic, both of which he dismissed, stating, “I’m not in a relationship” (*Sportskeeda.com*, June 8, 2025). His recent comment to *Corriere della Sera*—“Yes, I’m in love, but let’s not talk about my private life”—has only intensified curiosity (*Sportskeeda.com*, August 28, 2025). On the court, Sinner remains unflappable, with his first-round demolition of Kopriva showcasing his 22-match hardcourt Grand Slam win streak (*@usopen, August 26, 2025*). Facing Popyrin, who upset him at the 2024 Canadian Open, Sinner is favored to advance toward a potential final against Carlos Alcaraz (*CBSSports.com*).
