Those who play sports often end up with partners who are also athletes. The traveling schedule of an athlete is gruesome and an athlete has a much higher chance of creating an understanding relationship in such circumstances. Aryna Sabalenka is currently romantically involved with a former NHL player who travels with her on tour.

While he has endless patience for her tennis shenanigans, Konstantin Koltsov is still a fan of hockey. It showed when he was rushing Sabalenka in an episode of Netflix’s tennis docuseries Break Point, where she couldn’t stop talking about shoes.

The first episode of season 2 of Break Point covered Aryna Sabalenka before she won the 2023 Australian Open. The show opened with the Belarusian star talking about the shoes she designed with the help of Nike. Sabalenka showed the crew the colors and the designs she chose when her boyfriend eventually interjected.

As she showed her shoes, she said, “So what do you think? They are made by me. I choose the colors, yes?”. She continued, “You can actually, if you want, you can design, pick the colors and I think I can be a really good designer at Nike.

Eventually, her boyfriend interjected her segment and said, “Stop. Let’s go to the hockey game. Come on. Stop talking about Nike. That’s it.” The two had to attend a game between the Florida Panthers and Toronto Maple Leafs. The couple eventually left and had a ball of a time at the game.
