The 25-year-old Greek national is currently ranked world No.5 by the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP).

The tennis superstar has won nine ATP titles and also played in two major finals; the 2021 French Open and the 2023 Australian Open, losing both to Novak Djokovic.

Ahead of his match against Andy Murray in the second round in 2023 he said: "She brings happiness.

"She brings happiness to me whether on or off court.

"Today [after his first round win] I felt happy that she was there and able to see it with her own eyes.

"She's an inspiration to me, she's someone I've admired for a long time on the WTA Tour and I like the way she plays, I like the way she fights and I try to implement that a bit into my game.
