Paula Badosa and Stefanos Tsitsipas are the most glamorous couple on the tennis Tour. First, the separation at the beginning of May, announced on their social profiles: a few weeks later, however, the two returned together more in love than ever.
The season just ended saw the 27-year-old Spaniard on the rise, returning once again close to the top-10 of the WTA ranking after the physical problems that seemed to be forcing her to retire. The Greek’s year was completely opposite, falling out of the top-10 and among the most disappointing top players of the season.
The return to success at the WTA 500 in Washington and the excellent results obtained allowed Paula to earn the WTA Comeback of the year award, beating the competition of Naomi Osaka, Emma Raducanu, Amanda Anisimova and Karolina Muchova.
In a post on social media, Tsitsipas congratulated his partner on the award, sharing a beautiful love letter
“My dear Paula, you have worked so hard and shown so much resilience to re-establish yourself as a top-level player this year, and I couldn’t be more proud of you for winning the WTA Returning Player of the Year award. As someone once said, Spaniards never die,” wrote Tsitsipas on Instagram, praising Badosa’s season and her return to the court.
