World No.1 Jannik Sinner was seen in the stands supporting his girlfriend Anna Kalinskaya during her first-round match at Wimbledon against Panna Udvardy. The 17th seed won the match comfortably, 6-3, 6-2.

The Italian too won his first-round match in four sets yesterday and was in the stands on Court 15 to cheer his girlfriend on. The duo has been in a relationship since May.

They spoke about each other’s performances during the Wimbledon warm-up tournaments in Halle and Berlin. Sinner won at Halle for the first time in his career, but also acknowledged Kalinskaya’s performance in the final in Berlin against Jessica Pegula, despite losing in three close sets.

In the match, Sinner used his strong serve and forehand to dominate Hanfmann, easily winning the first set after a single break. He continued to lead in the second set, maintaining his advantage. The German fought back and put pressure on Sinner’s serve but couldn’t break through, allowing the Italian to take a two-set lead.

The third set saw a turnaround as Hanfmann surged to a 4-0 lead. Sinner seemed to struggle after a fall, and the World No. 110 gained momentum, celebrating his success as he won the set with a well-placed volley. However, the World No.1 quickly regained his form in the fourth set.

Under the lights on Court One, Sinner broke Hanfmann’s serve to lead 3-1 and stayed strong to finish the match. Having won his first grass-court title in Halle two weeks prior, the Italian is now set to face another tough opponent in Berrettini, who defeated Marton Fucsovics in his opening match.
