With her boyfriend being the top player in the world, Kalinskaya seems to have extra motivation to stand beside him. As he gets ready for the Wimbledon Open 2024, her match against Aryna Sabalenka might have proved her grit to be a strong contender. Kalinskaya restricted Sabalenka to one game as she led the charge from the start. However, Sabalenka withdrew midway, due to shoulder issues, as the Russians proceeded to play in the finale. With her hard work and Sinner’s support, Kalinskaya may create history sooner than later!
