‘Tsitsidosa’ never misses a chance to impress their fans. Just a few days ago, Paula Badosa was spotted with her sister Jana and rising Venezuela tennis star Carlos Silvestre. Badosa has been keeping things fun and light despite her hectic training schedule in the UAE. For example, she recently shared a video that showcased her dancing skills and then she was also spotted attending the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Stefanos Tsitsipas was seen working closely with his father Apostolos in Dubai. Amid all these Tsitsipas promised fans a 1 on 1 match with Badosa. However, it was postponed later on, but the couple still managed to bring a smile to the faces of their fans.

Stefanos Tsitsipas and Paula Badosaa, one of tennis’ most popular couples, went public with their relationship during the French Open in early June 2023. Tsitsipas revealed it was “love at first sight“. Explaining their initial days, he once said, “I first noticed Paula when I saw her at the Australian Open in 2020, when she was playing on center court. It was love at first sight, and from that day on I was completely mesmerized.” Paula Badosa revealed that she met Tsitsipas when she was having a tough time with her injuries.

The Spaniard claims, “He brought me the happiness, support, and fresh air that I needed so much at that time. I felt very happy to have light in my life during such a dark time.” Together, they often share their heartwarming moments on their social media accounts and fans love watching that. Recently, fans were quite excited about seeing them take on each other in a 1 on 1 match. However, Stefanos Tsitsipas recently shared a post on his IG stories which stated, “Unfortunately due to a last-minute technical difference we have to postpone out match tomorrow with Paula, but rest assured we will make it happen soon and make the wait worth it…”

However, the change in plans didn’t stop the couple from enjoying. The couple’s X fan page shared a photo of Tsitsipas and Badosa trying out some Italian delicacies at LUNAROSSA restaurant in Dubai. Both tennis stars looked quite happy looking at the huge pizzas with their names written on them. A perfect Dubai date? Well, fans love watching these types of moments featuring this beautiful tennis couple.

Talking about playing tennis with Paula Badosa, Stefanos Tsitsipas once revealed, “I bring the best out of my tennis with her when I practice … I honestly don’t even mind if she beats me. I want her to beat me. That means she’s getting better, and I want her to have an incredible career and reach world No. 1.” However, he once teased Badosa saying, “My goals are to surpass Paula’s best ranking, which is world number two, and to get better than that.” They dream of being world number one altogether! Can they fulfill their dream in the upcoming years? Time will tell, but let’s first look at what they had to say about their 2024 campaign and what they are looking for in 2025.

Stefanos Tsitsipas and Paula Badosa taking a look back at their 2024 season

In October, while giving an update on her health issues, Paula Badosa revealed, “My 2024 season has ended. Has been a very long season where I overcame situations I thought they were impossible…I’m very proud of myself. I’m back where I wanted to be and where I was aiming since my comeback.” She was 140th in the world on May 20, but Badosa managed to end the season at the 12th spot in the women’s singles ranking. Her incredible comeback in this season after going through multiple injuries in the past, earned her the WTA’s ‘Comeback Player of the Year Award.’ What was her reaction after getting this award?

Her boyfriend, Stefanos Tsitsipas played a crucial role in giving her the courage to make this comeback. Speaking on that during a previous interview, Paula Badsao revealed Stefanos Tsitsipas’ inspiring words that helped spark her resurgence. How does the Greek look at his 2024 season, though?

Well, Stefanos Tsitsipas won only one title this season and it came in Monte Carlo! Apart from that, he has failed to make it count when it mattered the most this year. Tsitsipas failed to qualify for the ATP Finals this year for the first time since 2018. After six consecutive years finishing inside the Top 10, he ended the year as world number 11!

Speaking on this season and his upcoming goals, Stefanos Tsitsipas said, “2024 was not an easy year, I thought my level dropped down…I would really like to get back into the top ten. 2025 I would love to see myself back there and you know I love the Nitto [ATP Finals] because I had a nice tournament there once. Perhaps the last goal that I would like to disclose and mention is definitely a grand slam final.” Do you think Stefanos Tsitsipas can make it to the finals at the first Grand Slam tournament of the 2025 season?
