Tommy Paul has taken on the new responsibility of giving tennis lessons to his girlfriend Paige Lorenze.
Lorenze, who is a social media influencer and model, recently posted a delightful video of her and Tommy Paul taking to the practice courts of The Bridges Tennis Center in Delray Beach, Florida, where the American frequently trains between tournaments.
“T said I made a lot of progress,” Paige Lorenze captioned the Instagram video.
In the video, the 2023 Australian Open semifinalist can be seen teaching his girlfriend about the racquet grip, serving technique and groundstrokes. The fun training session was seemingly a part of Paige Lorenze’s preparations ahead of her playful contest with her mother.
“Right now we’re just trying to get you to be able to beat your mom,” Paul said in the video posted on Instagram.
“We are getting there!!! @nancylorenze we are coming for you,” Paul wrote in the comments.
The American tennis icon has been in a relationship with Paige Lorenze since 2022. The social media influencer and model frequently accompanies the World No. 19 on tour, and is seen cheering for him in his player’s box during his matches.
Lorenze has a significant presence on social media. She has amassed over 400,000 followers on Instagram and has almost 75,000 subscribers on YouTube, where she frequently posts vlogs of her tennis touring life with Tommy Paul.
Tommy Paul gears up to commence 2023 clay court campaign in Houston
Tommy Paul has had a positive start to his 2023 season. He is currently ranked 7th in the live race for the year-end ATP Finals. The American has earned 14 wins against 5 losses on the tour this season, with two of his wins coming against Top-10 players Taylor Fritz and Hubert Hurkacz.
At the 2023 Australian Open, Paul obtained the best Grand Slam result of his career by reaching the semifinals of the tournament. He then made the quarterfinals of the Delray Beach Open before lifting the runners-up trophy at the ATP 500 event in Acapulco. The American’s latest stint at the ongoing Miami Open ended with a Round of 16 defeat against World No. 1 and defending champion Carlos Alcaraz [6-4, 6-4].
Paul is now gearing up to switch surfaces as the first half of the hardcourt season nears its end, paving the way for the commencement of the clay court season.
The 25-year-old tennis player will begin his clay court campaign at ATP Houston between April 3-9. He is the second seed in the tournament behind compatriot and friend Frances Tiafoe.
