Then once more, Sinner has crushed Zverev in seven consecutive matches, together with the semifinal of the Indian Wells Open and the Miami Open. So it would not seem that Zverev shouldn’t be fairly on his stage at this level.
Regardless of how their matches go, each Sinner and Zverev are profitable off the court docket. For Sinner, that is owed to his relationship with trend mannequin and social media influencer Laila Hasanovic.
While it is unknown precisely when these two paired up, Sinner and Hasanovic have clearly been going robust for the reason that summer time of 2025. They additionally share a canine, named Snoopy.
Zverev is dating Sophia Thomalla. The couple has been collectively since 2020, and are nonetheless seeing one another regardless of previous rumors that Zverev may have been with somebody else on the Australian Open.
