Jannik Sinner, the world's No. 1 men's singles tennis player, has been making headlines both on and off the court. Mzansi tennis fans are keen to know more about his personal life, especially his romantic relationships. Is he single, or is there someone special in his life right now?
Sinner's Relationship History
Sinner was previously linked to fellow tennis player Anna Kalinskaya. They were reportedly dating through 2024 and were even seen together after his US Open victory. However, the relationship remained largely private, and there was no formal announcement about a breakup.
Confirmation of Single Status
Earlier in 2025, after a three-month suspension for doping, Sinner confirmed that he was no longer in a relationship. This statement put an end to speculations about him and Kalinskaya. It also meant that any other rumoured girlfriends were not with him as he focused on competing at a high level in tournaments like the French Open.
Monte Carlo Rendezvous with Lara Leito
More recently, Sinner was spotted in Monte Carlo with Russian model Lara Leito. Italian publications ran stories claiming that the two were dating, leading to questions about whether Leito would be seen supporting him at the French Open. Chi Magazine published pictures of them together, reporting that she watched him train at the Monte Carlo Country Club and hugged him afterwards before leaving in his Audi RS6 ABT Legacy Edition car.
Who is Lara Leito?
Lara Leito is a model with a significant social media following, boasting over 350,000 followers on Instagram. She has worked with prestigious publications like Vogue and L’Officiel. Interestingly, she previously dated Oscar winner Adrien Brody.
While Leito attended the Monte Carlo Masters, Sinner couldn't participate due to his suspension. It remains unclear whether their Monte Carlo encounter signified a serious relationship or a casual meeting.
The Current Status
As of now, Jannik Sinner's relationship status remains somewhat ambiguous. While he confirmed his single status earlier in 2025, the sightings with Lara Leito have sparked new rumours. Whether he's focused solely on his tennis career or exploring new romantic interests, fans in South Africa and around the world will be watching closely!
