A grainy video. A glimpse of Bianca Andreescu walking through an airport next to a tall, stubbly, possibly European man. No PDA. No confirmations. Just a 4-second clip and the internet spiraled like she’d eloped with Novak Djokovic’s physio.
Let’s all take a step back, shall we? The “mystery man” in question was wearing sunglasses, holding a duffel bag, and committing the heinous crime of existing near Bianca. Naturally, that was enough for the online sleuths to declare: “She’s dating him.” Some say it’s a tennis coach. Others claim it’s a secret boyfriend. One rogue TikToker insists it’s a “spiritual advisor from the Swiss Alps.” Honestly, that last one sounds kind of on-brand.
Bianca hasn’t confirmed or denied anything because—spoiler alert—she owes us nothing about her love life. But that hasn’t stopped fans from zooming in on hand placement, interpreting side-eyes, and decoding astrology compatibility based on his visible ankle tattoo. The man hasn’t even spoken, and yet he’s already been accused of being a distraction, a rebound, and a future reality show villain.
Let the girl have a friend. Or a boyfriend. Or a flirty layover in Zurich. Whatever this is, it’s hers—not a subplot in the next season of Tennis: The Drama.
So, is romance in the air? Maybe. Is it any of our business? Not really. But will we keep watching like it’s Wimbledon mixed doubles? Of course we will.
