Jannik Sinner has addressed rumors that he secretly proposed to fellow tennis player and girlfriend Anna Kalinskaya after his US Open victory last month and that they are getting married soon. Sinner, who has had an outstanding year on the court, winning two Grand Slam titles and becoming World No. 1, dismissed these rumors. He confirmed that the reports of a secret wedding were untrue.
Sinner has been in the spotlight not only for his success on the court but also for controversies off it. The Italian star faced headlines regarding a doping case, where he tested positive for a banned substance but avoided suspension. However, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has appealed the decision, so the Italian could still face a ban in the future.
It was new for me too, to be honest (laughs). No, nothing happened, and I didn’t make any requests. I just read a bit about the details saying it happened after the US Open, but that’s fake news. Thank you.

Despite these issues, Sinner’s personal life has also drawn attention. He has been dating Kalinskaya, and the couple has been seen spending time together, training, and going on vacations. While fans speculated that they had gotten married, Sinner made it clear that this was not true. The Davis Cup champion was backed by Kalinskaya, who confirmed the ‘fake rumors’ on her Instagram story.

Jannik Sinner credits his ability to stay calm in his comeback win over Tomas Martin Etcheverry
World No. 1 Jannik Sinner overcame a tough challenge from Tomas Martin Etcheverry at the Shanghai Rolex Masters, winning 6-7(3), 6-4, 6-2 in two hours and 39 minutes. This victory improved Sinner’s head-to-head record against Etcheverry to 2-0. The two-time Grand Slam champion credited his calmness after losing the first set as the key to his comeback.
It was a very tough match, physically [and] mentally, so I am very happy to get through this one. I felt like it was a tough set that I lost. I had my chances [to win the set], but these things can happen. Sometimes you have to wait for your chances, which I have done, trying to stay calm mentally, and today that was the key.

Sinner stepped up his game in the second set, aiming to match his best performance in Shanghai. Both players traded breaks in the fifth and sixth games, but the top seed stayed focused to even the match at one set all.
Etcheverry fought hard in the final set, saving three break points in the first game. However, Sinner’s pressure eventually broke through, and he secured a crucial break in the third game. From there, he kept up the momentum, fending off three more break points in a long sixth game before sealing the win.
Having secured his 250th tour-level victory earlier against Taro Daniel, Sinner is in strong form. He is now in the running to claim his seventh title of the season after narrowly missing out to Carlos Alcaraz in the China Open final last week.
