Aryna Sabalenka gave tennis fans something unexpected to celebrate this week. Instead of headlines about forehands or rankings, the WTA world No. 1 grabbed attention for a personal milestone. Just days before stepping onto the court at Indian Wells, Sabalenka revealed she is engaged to businessman Georgios Frangulis, sharing the news with millions of followers online. The Belarusian star made the announcement on Instagram, where she has more than 4. 7 million followers. The post quickly spread across tennis news pages and fan accounts, turning into a viral moment on social media. Alongside a photo showing off her engagement ring, Sabalenka added a fun caption that caught fans’ attention. “All good guys, everything happened, but look how I look. ”
The news arrived at an interesting moment in the tennis calendar. Sabalenka is about to begin her Indian Wells campaign, one of the biggest events outside the Grand Slams on both the ATP Tour and WTA Tour.
Who is Georgios Frangulis?
Georgios Frangulis is not part of the professional tennis circuit. Instead, he comes from the business world. The Brazilian entrepreneur is the founder and chief executive of OakBerry, a rapidly expanding health-food brand known for its açaí bowls and smoothies. In recent years, OakBerry has expanded around the world, opening stores in many countries. The brand is popular in the wellness market, and Frangulis helped grow it. His relationship with Sabalenka became public in 2024. Fans soon began seeing them together at events and on social media. Frangulis has also been seen supporting Sabalenka at tournaments. As her profile in the sport has grown, the Brazilian businessman has frequently been spotted in her player box during matches.
Interestingly, Sabalenka had already hinted at this moment earlier in the season. After winning the Brisbane International in January, she thanked her boyfriend during the trophy ceremony before adding a playful line that drew laughs from the crowd. “Thank you to my boyfriend. Hopefully, soon I’ll call you something else, right?” At the time, it sounded like a joke. Now fans see it differently. The announcement also comes just before Sabalenka’s return at Indian Wells. After reaching the Australian Open final earlier this year, the world No. 1 arrives in California hoping to continue her strong season.
For now, though, the conversation around Sabalenka is about more than tennis. The engagement has given fans a rare glimpse into the personal life of one of the WTA Tour’s biggest stars.
