Tennis star Aryna Sabalenka has traded the pressures of the WTA Tour for sunshine, crystal clear waters and a relaxing getaway in Greece with her fiancé, Georgios Frangulis.
The Belarusian star shared a series of photos from her Greek escape, including bikini snaps as she enjoyed some downtime alongside Frangulis.
Sabalenka captioned the holiday photos simply:
“Rest and reset in 🇬🇷🫶.”
The getaway comes after a dramatic US Open campaign in New York, where Sabalenka entered the tournament as the top seed and two time defending champion.
The 28 year old progressed through the early rounds before overcoming Linda Noskova in a gruelling quarterfinal and defeating Jessica Pegula in the semifinals.
Her title defence ultimately came to an end in the final, where she was beaten by Elena Rybakina.
Following the tournament, Sabalenka headed to Greece to switch off from tennis and enjoy some well earned time away from the court.
Aryna Sabalenka and Georgios Frangulis’ relationship
Sabalenka first met Brazilian entrepreneur Georgios Frangulis in 2024 after becoming a brand ambassador for his Oakberry business.
The pair began dating several months later and made their relationship public that year.
They announced their engagement in March 2026.
The couple’s Greek getaway gave Sabalenka an opportunity to relax ahead of her return to competitive tennis.

Away from tennis, Georgios Frangulis has also been expanding his business interests in Greece.
The entrepreneur, who co-founded the Brazilian açaí brand , recently opened a new store in .
Located at 27 Angelou Metaxa Avenue, the new Oakberry outlet offers a selection of açaí bowls, smoothies, protein shakes and other healthy food options.
The opening marks another step in the brand’s expansion in Greece, bringing its popular açaí-based menu to one of the southern suburbs of Athens.
Sabalenka became an Oakberry brand ambassador in early 2024, before the couple’s relationship became public later that year.

Sabalenka’s Greek getaway also included a stop in Glyfada, where she joined Frangulis for the launch of his new clothing brand, The Gride.
The couple appeared together at Simple Caracters, the Liakotitis family venue in Glyfada, for the presentation of Frangulis’ new collection.
The event attracted a large crowd, with Sabalenka drawing plenty of attention from tennis fans and supporters of the new fashion label. The couple posed together during the launch, while their dog also became a popular guest at the event.
The name The Gride is a combination of the words “Greek” and “Pride”, reflecting the Greek identity behind Frangulis’ new fashion venture.
The Glyfada appearance came just days before Sabalenka shared photos from her Greek holiday, showing the tennis star enjoying some downtime with her fiancé after her US Open campaign.

The US Open final also marked the end of Sabalenka’s latest spell at the top of the WTA rankings.
Speaking after her defeat, Sabalenka said she remained focused on improving her game and winning more tournaments.
“I’ll just keep working hard and keep improving my tennis, my level, and hopefully I will win some more tournaments,” she said.
Reflecting on her US Open campaign, Sabalenka added that the experience would provide further motivation for the remainder of the season and beyond.
“I should be happy with the level I played and there’s lots of things to take from this tournament,” she said.
Sabalenka is expected to return to action at the China Open, which runs from September 30 to October 11.
For now, however, the four time Grand Slam champion appears to be making the most of her Greek escape.
