Melbourne, Australia – In a stunning admission that has left the tennis world reeling, Russian tennis star Anna Kalinskaya has confessed to having a major crush on Italian tennis sensation Jannik Sinner.
Speaking to reporters at the Australian Open, Kalinskaya revealed that she has been harboring feelings for Sinner for quite some time. “I have to admit, I’ve always been a big fan of Jannik’s game,” Kalinskaya said with a blush. “But it’s more than that. I think he’s an amazing person, both on and off the court.”
Kalinskaya, who is currently ranked 33rd in the world, admitted that she has been trying to get Sinner’s attention for a while now. “I’ve been trying to play it cool, but it’s hard when you’re around someone as charming and talented as Jannik,” she said with a laugh.
What’s even more surprising is that Kalinskaya claims she’s not afraid to admit her feelings, even if it means risking embarrassment. “I’m a straightforward person, and I don’t believe in hiding my emotions,” she said. “If Jannik feels the same way, great. If not, I’ll just have to accept it and move on.”
Sinner, who is currently ranked 8th in the world, was unavailable for comment. However, sources close to the Italian tennis star say he’s “flattered” by Kalinskaya’s admission.
As the Australian Open heats up, fans will be keeping a close eye on the potential romance between Kalinskaya and Sinner. Will they take their friendship to the next level, or will Kalinskaya’s crush remain unrequited? Only time will tell.
