Every now and then, reports are emerging and are adding fuel to the rumor that Jannik Sinner is dating Danish supermodel Laila Hasanovic. She was first spotted in Sinner’s box during his French Open campaign and was also seen in his box during his semifinal match at the US Open.

Sinner, in fact, was walking on the streets of Copenhagen, Denmark’s capital, with a ‘mystery’ woman, who, if reports are to be believed, was Hasanovic. The Italian ace denied all the rumors, saying he visited Copenhagen solely for business-related work. Both Sinner and Hasanovic reportedly share the same social media manager, Alex Meliss.

Sinner, ahead of the US Open, was also asked by an Italian outlet whether he was “in love,” to which the 24-year-old answered in the affirmative. During the US Open, some eagle-eyed social media fans saw a picture of Hasanovic on Sinner’s iPhone lockscreen. Last month, Nicoletta Stampfl, co-owner of the Santo Gelato ice cream shop in Monte Carlo, said something to Italian paper Dipiu that added more fuel to the rumors.

Sinner and Laila Hasanovic live in the La Condamine neighborhood of Monte Carlo. Our shop is right under their building. I really liked Laila; she’s kind, just like Jannik.

Amidst all these, a TikTok user dug out a picture of Hasanovic watching Holger Rune‘s match in a tournament with her mother and stated that the model had a “fling” with Rune. Upon spotting this, Hasanovic issued a strong response.

So I can’t even watch a regular game in my hometown without people starting dating rumors? Come on guys.

Rune is in Shanghai, preparing for his fourth-round match against Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard. In August, WTA ace Veronika Kudermetova alleged that Rune asked her on a date, but she rejected him because she was already married.

Sinner’s ex-girlfriend Anna Kalinskaya also alleged that he wanted to have a relationship with her, but she simply ignored his texts. Rune hit back at her, saying all he did was react to her stories.

Tallon Griekspoor sends a message to Jannik Sinner after his Shanghai Masters withdrawal

Jannik Sinner‘s Shanghai Masters campaign ended in disappointment. He was bidding to defend his title and faced Tallon Griekspoor in the third round, but suffered from cramping, which eventually forced him to give a walkover to the Dutchman.

I think I got a little bit lucky in the sense that we played in the evening, with no sun, and that certainly helped me. I just want to wish Jannik all the best, and I hope he can recover from this very quickly. Playing Jannik today was always going to be hard, but I’ve played him before, and although I’ve lost, I’ve pushed him close, so yes, it’s great to get the win.

Tallon Griekspoor said during the on-court interview

Griekspoor now holds a 1-4 head-to-head record over the four-time Grand Slam champion. The 27th seed will next be locking horns with Valentin Vacherot.

Sinner was chasing his fourth title of the season in Shanghai after his victories at the Australian Open, Wimbledon, and recently, at the China Open. In Beijing, the World No.2 breezed past Learner Tien.

Because of his injury, his participation in the Vienna Open is uncertain. Sinner clinched the title in the Austrian capital in 2023 by beating Daniil Medvedev and skipped the event last year.

He is now more than 1,000 points behind top-ranked Carlos Alcaraz on the live rankings as he lost 950 points for his failure to defend the title. The six-time Grand Slam champion skipped the penultimate Masters 1000 of the season because of his ankle injury.
