Aryna Sabalenka discovered a new theme song for herself, enjoying the tune during a drive with her boyfriend Georgios Frangulis. The Belarusian is gearing up for her return to the tour after a month-long hiatus.
Sabalenka recently suffered a setback in her 2024 season as she was forced to pull out of the Wimbledon Championships with a shoulder injury. The Belarusian also opted to skip the Paris Olympics due to the "tough schedule," instead choosing to make her highly anticipated comeback at the Citi Open, which commences on July 29.
Amid her recovery, the World No. 3 has been enjoying quality time with her boyfriend, Georgios Frangulis, the founder of Oakberry Acai. Sabalenka and Frangulis recently took the tennis court together in charming matching t-shirts after previously coordinating their looks during their vacation.
Aryna Sabalenka recently shared a glimpse of Georgios Frangulis driving her around while she enjoyed her "new theme song." The Belarusian also advertised the tune by djKDS, fittingly called 'Tiger,' in honor of the 26-year-old's two tattoos of the animal.
"Think I might have a new theme song... 😏🐯💜," she posted on her Instagram story.
Listen to the song here:
Sabalenka also featured the song in a clip of her latest training session, working on her footwork by displaying her skills with a football.
"We take footwork very seriously around here ⚽️," she captioned her Instagram post.
"I am learning Portuguese" - Aryna Sabalenka on immersing herself in boyfriend Georgios Frangulis' culture
While Aryna Sabalenka's boyfriend Georgios Frangulis has shown his support for her during her recovery, the Belarusian has been immersing herself in the Oakberry founder's culture.
During a recent Q&A session on Instagram, the World No. 3 was asked whether she was learning more about the Brazilian or Greek culture, likely about Frangulis' heritage.
In response, Sabalenka disclosed that she has delved into both cultures through her travels in Greece and efforts to learn Portuguese.
"I am learning Portuguese and was lucky enough to travel to Greece! So I guess you could say I'm doing both... 😂 ," she wrote on her Instagram story.
Aryna Sabalenka will aim to make a strong start to the North American hardcourt swing at the 2024 Citi Open, with the US Open on the horizon.
Before the New York Major, the Belarusian will team up with Taylor Fritz at the US Open Mixed Madness exhibition, having recently expressed her excitement for the "guaranteed fun" of their doubles partnership.
