Australian tennis player Thanasi Kokkinakis went public about his relationship with influencer girlfriend Hannah Dal Sasso in March. They were last photographed together in June when they were on double date with Nick Kyrgios and his girlfriend Costeen Hattzi. However, Kokkinakis and Dal Sasso’s breakup rumors are circulating. It is mostly because of Thanasi making his comeback on a dating app. But Hannah Dal Sasso is giving different signals. What’s going on?

Is Thanasi Kokkinakis back into the dating market?

The Australian tennis star has sparked rumors about the end of his relationship with Hannah by making his profile active on Raya- a celebrity dating app. ‘The Herald Sun’ disclosed this information, which was also shared by DailyMail. But there is no official confirmation. These breakup speculations started just days after the athlete was seen attending Piper-Heidsieck Summer of Tennis launch in Melbourne. His girlfriend was not present with him.
