The Spanish player is known for her intense dedication to her younger sister, Jana, a bond that has earned her much praise within the fraternity. Now, Badosa has doubled the joy of her sisterly bond by welcoming Jana to join her on vacation, turning an eventful planning into something really special.

Badosa is enjoying her off-season to the fullest, currently spending her time in Dubai – but maybe for training. However, before that, she chose a vacation and the joy of vacation has doubled with a special travel companion—her younger sister, Jana Badosa. The Spanish player shares a close bond with Jana and is often seen accompanied by her on tour, along with the Tsitsipas brothers. Last year, the WTA star opened up about her and her sister’s equation in an episode of “My Journey: Paula Badosa.” She reflected on their 10-year age gap, saying, “Of course, I’m her older sister, but at the same time, I always felt like I had to be her second mom.” Her heartwarming words revealed her intense love and affection for her sister.

Recently, The Spaniard shared an IG story featuring a happy moment with her young sister inside a car. Flashing a victory sign and a bright smile, Badosa captioned the post, “Reunited with this cutie @janabadosa,” accompanied by five pink heart emojis, expressing her happiness. It’s evident from the WTA star’s post that Jana had recently joined her in Dubai, bringing double the fun to their trip.

Badosa earlier was vacationing with her beau Stefanos Tsitsipas. She visited the Aston Martin facility in Engalnd’s Gaydon and then flew off to Iceland to enjoy a chilly vacation with the Greek player. Badoa shared snippets of their trip on her social media. Donning a beautiful winter dress, the WTA star looked gorgeous amidst the snow. “Lost in the endless white 🤍,” she captioned one of such stories and also praised Tsitsipas’ photography skills. However, it looks like Badosa’s mind wasn’t satisfied until she reunited with her baby sister for vacation 2.0.

In the past, Badosa has spoken about her protective role, particularly in supporting her sister financially. “I protect her so much, especially the role I’m playing right now—it’s financial. I’m helping her,” she shared, highlighting on her supportive and selfless nature toward her family. This humble gesture showcased how fortunate Jana is to have such a talented and compassionate sister like Paula Badosa.

Jana deeply admires her big sister. Inspired by Paula, she has taken up tennis and now trains at an academy in Naples, Florida. Their social media updates reveal their close-knit equation, with Jana frequently sharing moments of sisterly affection, showing just how much she treasures her talented big sister.
