Aryna Sabalenka is riding high on one of the best phases of her career, fresh off her US Open triumph. But even champions need a breather, and Sabalenka is making the most of hers, with a well-deserved break from the tennis courts. The Belarusian star has been spotted soaking in the sun—and love—with her boyfriend Georgios Frangulis. The two seem to be enjoying every moment together. In typical Sabalenka style, though, the World No. 2 recently revealed that she’s been teaching Frangulis a new skill. However, this quickly turned into a playful and adorable banter between the two.
Taking to her Instagram, the star player shared several pictures of her vacation with her boyfriend in Greece. The pictures highlight the cherishing time she spent with her boyfriend. The couple can be seen enjoying dinner dates, chilling near the sea, and gazing at the beautiful sunset in the pictures. But what caught the attention of the fans was a playful exchange of remarks that took place between the two.
Captioning her Instagram post, Sabalenka wrote, “training @georgiosfrangulis to be an IG boyfriend 😎📸,” signifying that Frangulis has a lot to learn about the virtual world. However, the Brazilian businessman was quick to respond to Sabalenka and wrote, “😂❤️I’m a natural, αγάπη μου (my love),” highlighting that he is well versed with the platform. This made Sabalenka respond adorably and she wrote, “meu amor 😂🐒❤️❤️❤️ (my love).” This, however, is not the first time when the couple has engaged in a social media PDA.

Sabalenka posted an adorable birthday wish for Oakberry’s CEO, which co-incidentally was on the same day when the Belarusian player won her maiden US Open title. Captioning the post, she wrote, “Happy birthday meu amor, I’m so lucky to have you by my side. Your support is priceless.”
Sabalenka has been in celebration mode ever since her US Open victory, where she defeated Jessica Pegula in the finals 7-5, 7-5. Since then, she has engaged in several activities including partying with her team and touring various countries with her boyfriend.
Remember, Sabalenka and Frangulis were rumored to date each other for a very long time until they finally confirmed their relationship through several adorable Instagram posts around May this year. But despite the love they share for each other, Sabalenka once made a huge blunder while mentioning her boyfriend.

When Aryna Sabalenka’s language barrier landed her in an embarrassing situation
Aryna Sabalenka’s hardcourt strength was witnessed throughout the American swing. She did not just win the US Open title but also clinched the trophy at the Cincinnati Masters. But what followed after her Cincinnati win was an embarrassing moment for the player. When asked how she manages to deliver interesting addresses and always remembers to thank everyone, Sabalenka was left in splits as she revealed her desire to improve her communication skills.
Speaking in the post-match interview after winning the Cincinnati Open, Sabalenka said, “I think I think I am the worst at speeches. I am the worst. I am getting so tight and nervous. I need to remember everyone, I need to, I need to make sure my English sounds good.” Her challenge with the language immediately came to light when she made a blunder.
