“After great consideration and many precious moments together, we have decided to part ways amicably. “We have shared a path full of love and learning and, now, as friends with great respect, we decided to continue each one on our own.” They were the words with which Paula Badosa confirmed her breakup with Stefanos Tsitsipas at the beginning of May, through Instagram.
The Catalan and the Greek starred in the fashionable romance in the world of tennis for several months, before this statement. However, the situation would have taken another turn according to information published by Sports DNA, a Greek portal specialized in the world of sports. In statements shared by Punto de Break, Tsitsipas would have confirmed to his national media that the relationship with Badosa continues after a reconciliation.
“We are together. I’m going to explain why some people create different stories about us. Not that I care, but I think people shouldn’t take it that way. Paula didn’t do anything wrong and neither did I. It was hard for us to be apart and I was going through hard times too. I would say that I didn’t handle it very well either, because I felt the pressure of the tour, of my work,” the tennis player began explaining.
“It seemed like a mountain to combine both things (personal and professional life) and I made the decision to take a break. After two or three weeks I realized that she is a person who has supported me a lot and when she tried to talk to me to meet up I felt how intense the love we have for each other is. “I realized that this relationship I have with Paula is completely different from any other relationship I have had in the past, I feel like she is my person and that we understand each other,” she added.
“That gives more value to everything I do and I want her by my side whenever possible. So yes, we have reconnected and we are in a good moment!” Tsitsipas concluded. In this way, both would be together again after a break forced by distance and competition calendars. Some tours on the ATP and WTA circuits that have not favored either of them in recent months.
The New York native was eliminated in the round of 16 of her most recent tournament, the Rome Masters 1000, after losing in three sets against world number 3, Coco Gauff. As if that were not enough, the Roland Garros draw (which starts this Sunday) awaits possible confrontations with up to three seeds if she manages to advance to the rounds. Regarding Tsitsipas, he lasted one more round than his partner in Italy, losing in the quarterfinals against the Chilean Nicolás Jarry.
