Italian tennis star Jannik Sinner has advanced to the Vienna Open final after defeating third seed Alex de Minaur 6-3, 6-4 in the semifinal. But fans were just as captivated by Sinner’s rumored girlfriend, Laila Hasanovic, who was seen supporting the Italian from the stands.
Laila Hasanovic Continues to Support Jannik Sinner During His Vienna Open Run
Images posted on X shortly after Sinner’s semifinal match showed Hasanovic continuing to support the Italian in Vienna. Hasanovic was previously spotted sitting in the stands alongside the Italian’s parents, Hanspeter and Siglinde, during his first-round match.
The connection between Sinner and Hasanovic has been a topic of intrigue throughout 2025. Earlier this season, Sinner was spotted in Copenhagen with a female companion, sparking initial rumors that Hasanovic, a well-known Danish model and social media influencer, might be the mystery figure.
Later, during the French Open, reporters pressed Sinner about his time in the Danish capital with a girl who seemed to match Hasanovic’s description. At the time, Sinner downplayed the speculation, insisting his visit to Copenhagen was strictly for photoshoots. Hasanovic herself was reportedly present at his match in Paris and later attended Wimbledon, though neither confirmed the connection publicly.
What Clues Have Fans Picked Up About Sinner and Hasanovic’s Romance?
Interest in the relationship intensified after Sinner’s candid comments at the US Open, where he admitted to being “in love” without naming the person involved. The tennis community quickly latched onto the remark, and fans scrutinized his every public appearance.
Buzz reached another level when cameras captured his phone wallpaper following a third-round victory over Denis Shapovalov, which closely resembled Hasanovic’s July campaign for Armani Beauty. Observant fans shared images across X, fueling a social media frenzy.
Adding further context, Italian weekly Dipiù reported that Sinner and Hasanovic spent time together in Monte Carlo, frequenting the local gelato shop Santo Gelato, whose co-owner Nicoletta Stampfl confirmed their visits.
Looking ahead, top seed Sinner will face second seed Alexander Zverev in the Vienna Open final. This will be their eighth meeting on the ATP Tour, with the German holding a 4-3 lead in their head-to-head record. They last met earlier this year at the Australian Open final, where the Italian won 6-3, 7-6(4), 6-3, clinching his second Melbourne title and third Grand Slam crown overall.
