Stefanos Tsitsipas and Paula Badosa don’t let go of any opportunity to enjoy each other’s company. From practice sessions to date nights, their love remains unwavering. However, right now, they are away from each other because of their professional commitments as the Greek star has left for Berlin, where he will be representing Team Europe in the Laver Cup.

After that, Tsitsipas will move to Tokyo where he will play in the ATP 500 Japan Open and will try and claim his second championship of the year. In the meantime though, Tsitsipas has delighted his followers by sharing a heartwarming Instagram story featuring a tender moment with his girlfriend, Paula Badosa.

The clip, initially shared by a fan, captures the couple in a charming display of affection. After a practice session, Tsitsipas and Badosa are sitting on a bench, where they exchange a high five, beaming at each other with genuine smiles. Tsitsipas shared the fans’ story from his own Instagram account. He is probably missing his girlfriend Badosa already who is scheduled to make a comeback at the WTA 1000 China Open in Beijing and hence, isn’t with Tsitsipas in Berlin.

At the US Open earlier this year, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Paula Badosa, aka “Tsitsidosa,” created quite a stir when they teamed up in the mixed doubles category. The eagerly awaited duo headed to Court 11, which was crowded with spectators, on the third day of the mixed doubles action. Tsitsipas and Badosa put in a strong effort, but in a closely contested match, the seasoned Mexican pair of Giuliana Olmos and Santiago Gonzalez won. However, after the match, Badosa talked candidly about her relationship with Stefanos Tsitsipas.

The Spaniard opened up about how thrilled she was to be partnering with Tsitsipas and how their close relationship improved their chemistry on the court. She stated, “We’re looking forward to it, it’s really nice to share the court together. We spend time off court, but also on court. It’s really special in a Slam. It’s like a dream come true.”

For Paula Badosa, playing in mixed doubles with Stefanos Tsitsipas was like a dream, but she isn’t always calm when the Greek competes in the singles and she has to watch from outside.

Paula Badosa ‘suffers’ watching Stefanos Tsitsipas play

During a press conference at the US Open in 2024, Paula Badosa spoke openly about the emotional toll of watching her boyfriend Stefanos Tsitsipas compete. The 26-year-old revealed that while watching each other’s matches, she and Tsitsipas go through a great deal of distress.

She explained, “I think we both suffer a lot. We’re very emotional, and as we say, we love each other so much, and we want the best for us. Of course, we suffer; there are some moments I cannot even watch. It’s tough to follow it because, also, we’re used to being on the court, so we control a little bit of the situation, but from the outside, we can’t do anything.”

While Badosa had a great run in the US Open singles as she made her way to the quarterfinals before losing to Emma Navarro, Tsitsipas got eliminated from the first round itself, losing to Thanasi Kokkinakis. The Greek will now be looking to put on a good show in the Laver Cup before moving to Tokyo.
