"The allure of tennis is irresistible" - Stefanos Tsitsipas echoes girlfriend Paula Badosa as she admits to "chasing adrenaline" while competing

Stefanos Tsitsipas has endorsed his girlfriend Paula Badosa's sentiments about chasing the exhilarating rush she experiences when competing for wins on the tour.

Since beginning their relationship in May this year, Badosa and Tsitsipas have openly and constantly shared their affection for each other on social media. Following their respective exits from the 2023 Wimbledon Championships, the couple enjoyed some quality time together in Madrid and then Greece.

On Thursday, July 27, Tsitsipas shared a quote by Badosa that referenced her perspective on tennis. The Spaniard emphasized the appeal of victories, the intense emotions they evoke, and the rush of adrenaline they provide before admitting to constantly chasing that thrill.

"The wins and the feelings that you get, the adrenaline that it gives you; you're chasing that all the time," Badosa said.

The Greek echoed Badosa's statement, commenting on the "irresistible allure" that tennis holds.

"The allure of tennis is irresistible. On point!" Tsitsipas tweeted.

Tsitsipas' alignment with Badosa's remarks comes as no surprise, as he has previously opened up about their minds being on the "same wavelength" and sharing a spiritual connection.

"Our minds are on the same wavelength; it's such a spiritual connection. We have good vibes together. This is such a beautiful experience. I don't think many people experience that kind of spiritual and soulmate connection with someone," he said.
