From those who are married with a child to those who are newly courting, Wimbledon 2024 will see a host of tennis power couples at the All England Club.
So, SunSport has served up the smash-hit tennis pairings who have got a Hawk-Eye for each other.
Katie Boulter & Alex De Minaur
The British No1 from Leicester has been dating the Aussie since 2020 and they even teamed up to play mixed doubles at Wimbledon last year.
Incredibly, Boults won her maiden WTA 500 title in San Diego in March this year - the day after De Minaur landed the crown in Acapulco before hot-footing it to be in the crowd to cheer on his girlfriend.

Boulter sparked engagement rumours when she was spotted in the crowd rocking a ring before the Sydney speedster confirmed he hadn't popped the question... yet.
They made their red-carpet debut at the Laureus World Sport Awards in Madrid the following month - but De Minaur played a risky shot by joking he loved his classic 1973 Mini more than Katie…

The Bristol-born star joked: "Wag life is stressful," after the veteran Australian came from match point down to qualify for Wimbledon 2024.
Jannik Sinner & Anna Kalinskaya
It’s been a big year already for Gucci's Jannik Sinner, winning his first Grand Slam in Australia, becoming the world No1 for the first time - and then asking Anna Kalinskaya out.

There were rumours about the Italian-Russian duo linking up after being spotted at dinner together and they went public at the French Open in May where the Moscow beauty sat in Sinner's box to watch him in action.
Glamorous Kalinskaya previously dated Nick Kyrgios before their acrimonious split in 2020 and admitted she has to blank DMs from plenty of professional footballers now she's with Sinner.
Stefanos Tsitsipas & Paula Badosa
Tennis fans had to check it was not April Fool’s Day when Tsitsipas and Badosa created their joint Instagram account and started posting their gushy, lovey-dovey content.
They could not keep their hands off each other leading into Wimbledon last year but dreams of pairing up on the court were dashed by the Spanish star’s back injury.
‘Tsitsidosa’ appeared to be over in May 2024 when that infamous Instagram account was deactivated and they confirmed they had indeed split up… but within a couple of weeks the relationship was back on.
The Greek former world No3 said: “We talk about equipment. We talk about things that we can improve. Paula keeps saying she wishes she had my forehand. I tell her, ‘I’m sorry, but that's not possible so you have to find ways around it’.” Thrilling.

Tennis stars’ new careers
PLENTY of tennis stars have stayed involved in the sport since retiring.
But others pursued very different careers. Here are some of the best…
- I reached French Open and Wimbledon finals as a teenager but I quit to become a nun
- I won Wimbledon mixed doubles with my sister but got fed up with English weather so now run luxury B&B
- I was tipped for stardom aged 12 but retrained to become high-flying lawyer
- I earned £9m and won French Open before setting up bistro with Brazilian model girlfriend
- I’m last Frenchman to win Roland Garros, now I’m singer with six albums hitting No1 in charts
- I'm former world No1 but quit aged 29 - instead I went on to play professional poker and golf
- I was destined for the top but swapped lobs for labs as award-winning Harvard physicist
Gael Monfils & Elina Svitolina
Monfils’ showman personality and entertaining brand of tennis clearly did enough to woo Ukraine’s Svitolina.
They told the public they were dating in 2019 and got engaged in April 2021 - three months later they tied the knot as the Frenchman rocked an incredible purple suit for the big day.
Svitolina - who still uses her maiden name on tour - took a break from tennis to have their first baby, daughter Skai was born in October 2022.
She then returned and reached the Wimbledon semis in an emotional fairytale run last year - as knocked-out Monfils took charge of childcare.

Shapo has had a more successful career on the court, earning more than £8.8million and reaching world No10 - while injury-hit Bjorklund has peaked at No123 so far.
The flamboyant lefty got down on one knee to propose in Bjorklund’s homeland in July 2023 in romantic scenes.

Machac is making a steady rise up the rankings while Siniakova is a doubles specialist, winning all four of the Grand Slams and Olympic gold.
