Jannik Sinner comments on girlfriend Anna Kalinskaya’s ‘presence’ in his life
Jannik Sinner opened up about the influence his girlfriend, Anna Kalinskaya, has had on his life. The Italian tennis star shared that Kalinskaya has been a constant source of support for him. Since the couple went public with their relationship, she has often been spotted in the stands, cheering him on during his matches.
The Russian showed her support at the 2024 US Open in New York. After the 23-year-old secured a victory against Taylor Fritz in the final, the couple shared a heartfelt kiss.

In November 2024, in an interview with Esquire, Jannik Sinner explained that their connection works so well because it doesn’t require him to change who he is, either as a person or a player.
"I don't think anything has changed. Having a girlfriend is something that either makes you feel good or makes you feel bad. I want it to be something that feels very natural, which comes into my life normally. I can't afford to change as a player or as a person. That hasn't happened, that's why it works," Sinner said.
