Aryna Sabalenka extends Miami victory celebrations with boyfriend Georgios: From giant tennis cake to people erupting in applause

Three-time Major winner Aryna Sabalenka celebrated her Miami Open victory with a lavish dinner at Miami's Casadonna restaurant. The Belarusian dominated the tournament from start to finish, without losing a set and only dropped 30 games across six matches. It was the World No. 1's first Miami Open win, but it will unlikely be her last.

Sabalenka is no stranger to Casadonna. She attended the restaurant's glitzy opening ceremony in 2023, where she rubbed shoulders with fellow tennis greats Serena Williams and Caroline Wozniacki and celebrity icons like Victoria and David Beckham.

Sabalenka and her boyfriend, Georgios Frangulis, shared their night out in Miami on their Instagram stories, showing images of elaborate table decorations and a large tennis cake. She captioned her pictures with thanks to the restaurant owners, David and Isabel Grutman:

Aryna Sabalenka has had an up-and-down start to 2025 by her exalted standards. She started by winning the Brisbane International but then suffered a disappointing loss in the final of the Australian Open to American Madison Keys. It was a match she was expected to win. Early exits in Qatar and Dubai suggested a drop in form for the 26-year-old.

Sabalenka roared back at Indian Wells, dropping just 21 games en route to the final, including her revenge over Australian Open nemesis Madison Keys in the semifinal, beating Keys emphatically, 6-0, 6-1. She came unstuck again in the final, beaten in three sets by teenage prodigy Mirra Andreeva.

After the Keys match, Sabalenka told the post-match press conference that she was still hungry for wins, as reported by tennis.com:

“I was hungry… That Australian Open match was really heart(breaking) for me, and I really needed some time to recover after that. I was really focused, so I was just really hungry to get this win against Madison.”

Sabalenka took that hunger into the Miami Open tournament. Her outstanding performances in Florida suggested that she's ready for the European swing, and the women's game has a formidable player again at its helm.
