A simple nickname for Jannik Sinner’s girlfriend, Laila Hasanovic, quickly sparked a conversation on social media. Fans went into frenzy after Hasanovic was dubbed as the tennis’ first lady.
Hasanovic is a model with a huge following on social media. She mainly makes beauty, lifestyle and fashion-based content. She has been a finalist in Miss World Denmark. She also has her own beauty brand focused on skincare and tanning products. Sinner and Hasanovic made their relationsihp public in October 2025 after the tennis player mentioned her in his victory speech after winning the Vienna Open.
Thanks for the submission!
Since then, Hasanovic has been spotted at multiple tennis tournaments, including the ATP Finals in 2025, Monte Carlo Masters, and the Rome Open. Recently, one apparent fan account shared a post about her, while referring to her as “tennis’ first lady.” However, the given-title wasn’t well received by tennis fans, leading to a debat on WAG (Wives and Girlfriends) culture.
One of the fans disagreed with the label, writing:
“”She is beautiful but she isn’t tennis First Lady 😭”
Another fan justified that since she is dating the World No.1, the title suits her perfectly.
“I mean, she’s dating n.1 so she’s kinda the first lady,” the fan countered.
A fan simply wrote:
“Just because Jannik no 1 doesn’t mean she is the First Lady of Tennis.”

Jannik Sinner reflects on his 2026 Wimbledon Championships title victory
Jannik Sinner defended his Wimbledon title after seeing off French Open champion Alexander Zverev 6-7(7-9), 7-6 (7-2), 6-3, 6-4 at the All England Club. During the Champions’ Dinner event, he attributed the win to his years of hard work and dedication. He added that doing the right things in training increases the chances of success.
“I think you know we practice a lot. Every day I dedicate my whole life to be the best possible version of myself. And, you know, for moments like this, we have a lot of pressure. We have external problems sometimes, but at the end of the day we always need to show up on the court and perform in the best possible way. “
“I always try to understand how much work I put in, and of course having these kinds of results,” Jannik Sinner added. “Not every tournament goes our way, but at the same time, the percentage is higher if you do many things in the right way. So yeah, I would say that’s the main key.” (0:42 onwards)
