Stefanos Tsitsipas and Paula Badosa are set to compete as a team in the mixed doubles tournament at Wimbledon 2023.

Tsitsipas and Badosa started dating not long back and have already become a greatly adored couple in tennis. The duo have entered the mixed doubles event at the grass-court Major and will take on top seeds Jessica Pegula and Austin Krajicek in the opening round.

If Tsitsipas and Badosa win their opening match, they will take on either Andrea Vavassori and Liudmila Samsonova or Rafael Matos and Louisa Stefani.

The Greek is also competing in the men's doubles event at Wimbledon with his brother Petros as his partner. The pair will face the French duo of Arthur Fils and Luca van Assche in the opening round.
