Tsitsipas Drops Bombshell About Biggest Fan – And It’s Not Who You Think!
You won’t believe this one. So, I was reading this latest interview with Stefanos Tsitsipas, and he casually drops a total bombshell about who he considers his biggest fan. And no, it’s not his dad, Apostolos, who’s famously coached him throughout his career and basically lived in the player’s box for years. It’s actually… Paula Badosa’s dad!
Yep, you heard that right. Tsitsipas says his girlfriend’s father, Josep Badosa, is his number one supporter. And the way he tells it is just too good. Apparently, Josep walks around everywhere in this one “Team Tsitsipas” t-shirt that Stefanos gave him, like he’s the president of the fan club or something. Stef was laughing as he told the story, but you could tell he was genuinely touched by the support.

Now, if you’ve been following their story, Stefanos and Paula have been dating for nearly two years now, and their relationship has really blossomed both on and off the court. You often see them cheering each other on from the stands, being each other’s emotional anchors through the highs and lows of professional tennis. But this little twist – that Paula’s dad is so publicly and proudly backing Stef – just adds a whole new layer of sweetness to their connection.
And honestly, Josep has had some great reasons to celebrate Stef lately. Tsitsipas clinched a big ATP 500 title in Dubai earlier this year, and he’s been working his way back up the rankings. Paula, despite battling some nasty back injuries, also had a big moment last summer when she took the title in Washington and started climbing her way back. Unfortunately, she’s hit another rough patch and has taken a break again after a short comeback in Miami.
Meanwhile, Stefanos was doing well in Barcelona – until he shocked everyone by retiring just minutes into his quarter-final match. Fans were left stunned, especially since he’s always been a strong contender there. But the guy’s focused. He’s got Madrid and the French Open up next, and there’s talk about possibly adding Goran Ivanisevic to his coaching team – though he’s playing it close to the chest on that one for now.
So yeah, while Paula takes some time off to recover, Stefanos is still grinding it out on tour, with Josep Badosa apparently waving the Tsitsipas flag higher than ever. It’s such a wholesome twist in the fast-paced, high-pressure world of tennis. Behind all the headlines, titles, and injuries, it's the unexpected bonds like these that remind you why sports – and stories like this – are just so human.
