The Laver Cup's opening night in Berlin was transformed from a standard sporting event into a full-blown red carpet affair, thanks to a stunning appearance from Anna Kalinskaya. The Russian WTA star, who is dating Danish tennis sensation Holger Rune, captivated onlookers with a breathtaking fashion choice that became the talk of the evening.
Kalinskaya confidently owned the spotlight in a sheer black lace dress, a daring and elegant ensemble that left little to the imagination. The intricate design showcased her impeccable style, effortlessly upstaging the usual tennis-centric buzz and firmly placing herself at the centre of the event's glamour.
While the ceremony was designed to honour the legendary Roger Federer, making a grand entrance to a hero's welcome, all eyes were frequently drawn back to the couple. Rune, looking sharp in a classic black tuxedo, stood proudly beside his partner, the picture of a supportive and smitten boyfriend.
The pair, whose relationship became public knowledge earlier this year, looked completely at ease amidst the flashing cameras and glamorous setting. Their appearance together at such a high-profile event solidifies their status as one of tennis's new 'it' couples, blending on-court talent with off-court star power.
This glamorous interlude provides a captivating backdrop to the fierce competition that awaits. Rune is set to represent Team Europe in the tournament, battling it out against the world's best in the unique team format of the Laver Cup.
