Anna Kalinskaya’s season has been a rollercoaster of grit and growth. With two runner-up finishes and a couple of quarterfinal appearances, she’s been quietly making her mark and showing the tennis world that her hard work is paying off. But even the fiercest competitors need a breather, and Kalinskaya is no exception. Now, as the season winds down, the Russian star is embracing a well-deserved break, swapping the court battles for cozy moments with friends back home.

The Russian tennis sensation played her last tournament at the Ningbo Open this year where she faced a defeat against Karolina Muchova in a thrilling quarterfinal match in three sets. However, she decided to keep all the setbacks of the courts aside to spend some radiant moments at home in Moscow. And now, even though she is in Miami (possibly for training) as evidenced by her recent social media posts, the memories she cherished at home seem to remain at the back of her mind. 

Taking to Instagram on Friday, the 25-year-old shared a string of pictures as she can be seen enjoying some great moments with her friends. Donning a black attire, the star player’s latest looks are nothing short of stunning. She wrote, “So nice to be home with my lovely girls 💖🥹👯‍♀️🍰🎀🐀🤣” with the emojis signifying happiness and excitement. This, however, is not the first time when her off-court activities are coming to light. 

Kalinskaya enjoyed a good number of weeks at her home. In a stunning post that she shared on October 26, Kalinskaya highlighted her happiness being in Moscow and captioned it, “Moscow nights ❤️‍🔥” Besides, her best friend Erika Yakhimovich, who is also featured in the latest pictures shared by Kalinskaya, took to her Instagram on November 11 to shed light on their camaraderie. Sharing some pictures with the star player, she captioned, “🦥❤️☕️” Kalinskaya’s latest pictures, meanwhile, come at a time when her boyfriend Jannik Sinner is playing some sensational tennis in Turin. 

Playing in the ATP Finals, the Italian dynamo won the first three matches of his campaign in straight sets and is now gearing up to face Casper Ruud in the semifinals. But while his on-court skills might be mesmerizing his fans, what has continued to garner him flak is his lackluster response to his girlfriend as he shared some insights into their relationship. 

When Jannik Sinner’s straightforward take on relationship with Anna Kalinskaya sparked debate

Jannik Sinner has often highlighted his wish to keep things about his relationship under wraps. Even while confirming his bond with Anna Kalinskaya during the French Open this year, he said that he is unwilling to share much information. And now, he is again back in the spotlight due to his take on his relationship, which is not easily digestible for tennis enthusiasts. 

In an interview with Esquire, Sinner shared an honest take on the impact on his life after he started dating the Russian beauty. “I don’t think anything has changed,” he said, adding “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.” Continuing further, he explained the reason for this response.

“I can’t afford to change as a player or as a person. That hasn’t happened, that’s why it works,” he added. However, This straightforwardness from Sinner did not go well with several in the community who lashed out at him. However, Kalinskaya herself is yet to comment on this as of now. 

As the Russian star now gears up for the next season, it would be interesting to see if she will share more such exciting pictures from her vacation and mesmerize her fans yet again.
