The Serb has won 15 singles titles, including the 2008 French Open, and was also a finalist at the Australian Open in the same year.

Schweinsteiger, meanwhile, is a German former footballer who was part of the 2014 FIFA World Cup-winning team. He won the FA Cup with Manchester United in the 2015-16 season and the Champions League with Bayern Munich in the 2012-13 edition of the marquee event. The 39-year-old has also won eight Bundesliga titles with Bayern Munich.

Even after retirement, Ana Ivanovic and Schweinsteiger often try their hand at tennis and golf. In a previous interview with Olympics.com, Ivanovic said that her husband remains competitive, despite her making him struggle for points. The 36-year-old added that she occasionally lets the German win some points if he deserves those.
“He’s very competitive and he’s still trying super hard. We play every game that he gets 30-love and he can maybe manage to get a game or two but I sometimes make him work hard for points and sometimes let him win a game when he deserves it,” Ana Ivanovic said.
The couple also frequently goes on golfing outings and shared a glimpse of one earlier this year. As per Ivanovic's prior disclosure, Schweinsteiger is her "favorite golf buddy".
"Enjoying time with my favorite golf buddy⛳️," the Serb wrote on Instagram.
