During Jannik Sinner’s US Open semifinal victory over Felix Auger-Aliassime, the cameras captured a familiar face in the stands — Danish model Laila Hasanovic. Her appearance at Arthur Ashe Stadium added fuel to ongoing speculation about her relationship with the world number one. Dressed elegantly and applauding key points, Hasanovic’s presence did not go unnoticed by fans and commentators alike.
A Growing Public Connection
Rumors linking Sinner and Hasanovic have been circulating for months, sparked by sightings at major tournaments including Roland Garros and Wimbledon. The speculation intensified when fans spotted what appeared to be a photo of Hasanovic as Sinner’s phone wallpaper during an earlier US Open match. Neither has publicly confirmed the relationship, but their repeated appearances together have kept the conversation alive.
Support Beyond the Court
Hasanovic, known for her work with high-end fashion brands, reportedly traveled to New York specifically to support Sinner during the tournament. According to acquaintances in Monte Carlo, where both are believed to reside, the pair share a close bond and a love for simple pleasures like visiting a local gelato shop. Those who have met Hasanovic describe her as warm, approachable, and grounded despite her modeling success.
Focus on the Final
With Sinner advancing to face Carlos Alcaraz in the final, the spotlight will remain on both his performance and the personal storyline developing off the court. Whether or not they choose to speak publicly about their connection, Hasanovic’s visible support has already become part of the narrative surrounding Sinner’s US Open campaign.
