It\u2019s one of the most stressful situations I\u2019ve ever experienced,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve always loved tennis and been around it for a long time. Through my company Oakberry we\u2019ve sponsored tournaments, but when you have such a personal connection with someone and with the sport, it becomes something completely different. Sitting in the box during tough matches is by far the hardest part.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI never say anything during matches. I try not to show too much emotion, because Aryna notices everything \u2013 what everyone is doing in the box. I just clap as loudly as I can and make sure she feels supported. For me, the most important part comes afterwards \u2013 making sure she\u2019s feeling good overall once the match is over.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sabalenka has credited her success on court to the contentment she has off it and she was gushing in her praise of her team and especially Frangulis after her US Open win earlier this month.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ NEXT: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-features\/aryna-sabalenka-boyfriend-multimillionaire-georgios-frangulis\">Aryna Sabalenka: Who is world No 1\u2019s boyfriend Georgios Frangulis?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/aryna-sabalenka-romantic-images-boyfriend-reveals-all\">Aryna Sabalenka confirms she is not missing tennis after posting romantic images<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/\">Tennis365<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aryna Sabalenka opted to take a break from tennis after her emotional US Open win and it is clear that she is relishing her time away from the court after she posted some romantic images of her holiday in Greece.
