It’s certainly no secret that each of the competitors set to participate in the tournament have had successful careers, but many of them have also taken major strides in their love lives.

That’s right, a lot of the players are taken – and being in a relationship with some of the top sports stars on the planet certainly has its perks.

Many of the tennis pros’ partners have flaunted the numerous upsides that come with dating a famous athlete on social media – which usually includes lavish trips all around the world, stays in five-star resorts, private jet rides, invites to elite parties, and dinners at some of the best restaurants on the planet.

While most of the women are not shy about showing off their luxurious lives – earning them a legion of followers who love to get a glimpse into what it’s really like to be a tennis WAG – others do their best to stay out of the spotlight and keep their relationship private.

Some of them even have their own booming careers in the sports industry, racking up their own impressive achievements on the court.

It’s been said that the two athletes first crossed path at the 2015 US Open, where they were introduced by mutual friend Victoria Duval, and that their romance began shortly after that.

But it wasn’t until three years later – on Valentine’s Day in 2018 – that they made their relationship public. 

Since then, they have certainly not tried to hide their love – as Ayan has been spotted sitting courtside and cheering Frances on from the sidelines at numerous matches over the years.

She even surprised the sports star when he faced off against Tomas Martin Etcheverry at the US Men’s Clay Court Championship in Houston in April 2023.

‘Top 10 in the world,’ she gushed. ‘I started taking screenshots of different moments and accomplishments a few years ago in anticipation of this day. 

‘I can’t post them all but I think this tells the story pretty well. I am so proud of you. Huge milestone and I think that we can finally say that.’

And on Ayan’s 26th birthday earlier this month, Frances posted another loving tribute to her.

Tommy Paul and Paige Lorenze

While it’s unclear when Tommy Paul, 26, from New Jersey, and his girlfriend Paige Lorenze, 25, began dating, they first started popping up on each other’s social media accounts in late 2022

Like Morgan, Paige has earned hundreds of thousands of followers for continuously sharing a behind-the-scenes look into what it’s like to date a professional athlete

She often documents exquisite trips around the world to places like Switzerland, Austria, Sweden, France (seen), and Australia

While it’s unclear when Tommy Paul, 26, from Voorhees, New Jersey, and his girlfriend Paige Lorenze, 25, began dating, they first started popping up on each other’s social media accounts in October 2022. 

Like Morgan, Paige has earned hundreds of thousands of followers for continuously sharing a behind-the-scenes look into what it’s like to date a professional athlete. 

She often documents exquisite trips around the world to places like Switzerland, Austria, Sweden, France, and Australia. 

Paige – a former professional skier – previously made headlines for her relationship with Armie Hammer, whom she started dating in 2020 after meeting over social media. 

They were in a ‘polyamorous open relationship’ for about five months before splitting in December of that year, and she later accused the actor of using a knife to carve the letter A into her groin area before licking the blood from the wound. 

She spoke out about the ‘deeply traumatic’ four-month relationship, which she said left her emotionally and physically scarred, exclusively to DailyMailTV in 2021. 

The blonde beauty claimed that Armie was fixated on biting her body and begging her to allow him to take lumps of flesh from her arm before consuming them.

She later accused the actor of using a knife to carve the letter A into her groin area before licking the blood from the wound 

She also said he asked her to have her ribs removed, so that he could barbecue them. 

‘I want Armie to address his demons, see the pain and trauma that he has caused me and other women,’ she said at the time. 

‘He told me there’s a whole community that will do this stuff, that it was not criminal. He really thought that his fantasies were normal behavior in the BDSM, non-normative, sexual kink community. 

‘I thought that this is what it was. I thought I was safe. But any man who is fantasizing about crushing bones, eating them, having sex with female limp bodies is a danger to all women.

‘And this is not me kink shaming, I want that to be clear. His actions and behavior are dangerous and emotionally and psychologically damaging.

‘He is saying people are kink shaming him and should not comment on his sex life, but BDSM is a smoke screen for him wanting to hurt women.

‘You can be just as traumatized by consensual sex. It’s unacceptable that he coerces women into agreeing to let him hurt them.’

In a statement to DailyMail.com afterwards, Armie’s lawyer said: ‘These assertions about Mr. Hammer are patently untrue.

‘Any interactions with this person, or any partner of his, were completely consensual in that they were fully discussed, agreed upon, and mutually participatory.’

Paige, originally from Guilford, Connecticut, is a graduate of New York City’s Parsons School of Design, and she has founded her own lifestyle brand called Dairy Boy

Following her split from Armie, she was briefly linked to a few other famous faces – including country music singer Morgan Wallen and The Bachelorette’s Tyler Cameron (seen)

After spending five years living in Manhattan, Paige relocated onto a farm in Connecticut in September 2022

Paige, originally from Guilford, Connecticut, is a graduate of New York City’s Parsons School of Design, and she has founded her own lifestyle brand called Dairy Boy, which sells everything from loungewear to candles.

She explained that buying her own place was important to her mental health

‘Dairy Boy is just me,’ she told Elite Daily earlier this year. ‘It’s about being proud of where you’re from. It’s about living a simpler life. 

‘It’s about confidence and embracing the grounded feeling you get from spending time outside.’

Following her split from Armie, she was briefly linked to a few other famous faces – including country music singer Morgan Wallen and The Bachelorette’s Tyler Cameron, before entering into a relationship with Tommy. 

After she and Tyler broke up, she claimed she felt like he was ‘using her’ and that he only dated her because he wanted ‘some media storm.’

‘This might sound narcissistic because he has a pretty insane following, but I felt like he was using me. I don’t know, I felt like he wanted some media storm,’ she sated.

‘He was looking at my story views, and I was getting more story views than him, and he… literally, word-for-word said, “I need a scandal,” like joking.

‘I don’t like that about myself, but I do have some s**t in the media about me… especially around my relationships.’

When asked about her favorite parts of country living, she gushed, ‘We cook dinner, go for hikes, and spend time outside. It’s the simpler things, but it’s really fulfilling’

‘I was constantly searching for my perfect city, but I wasn’t finding it,’ she said to Elite while discussing the move 

She splits her time between Connecticut and Florida, where Tommy trains – and she hardly ever misses one of his matches

After spending five years living in Manhattan, Paige relocated to a farm in Connecticut in September 2022.

‘Even when I was based in New York, I was constantly leaving and testing out new places. I lived in Nashville and LA. I was constantly searching for my perfect city, but I wasn’t finding it,’ she explained to Elite while discussing the move. 

‘Then, I realized it doesn’t exist, and that’s totally fine. For me, Connecticut was the right choice.’

She explained that buying her own place was important to her mental health, adding, ‘It feels really good to have my own home.

‘It’s not my boyfriend’s, it’s not anyone else’s. I have my own solid foundation, and that’s made a huge difference.’

When asked about her favorite parts of country living, she gushed, ‘A slower pace of life and the fact that I get to ride my horse every day. 

‘A lot of people who live around here might be bored and struggle to find things that they enjoy. But for me, I get to see my family and my best friends. 

‘We cook dinner, go for hikes, and spend time outside. It’s the simpler things, but it’s really fulfilling.’

She splits her time between Connecticut and Florida, where Tommy trains – and she hardly ever misses one of his matches.
