While the Tennis world was laser-focused on Carlos Alcaraz vs. Jannik Sinner, Formula 1 star Kimi Antonelli and his girlfriend, Eliska Babickova, sparked social media buzz at the ATP finals.
At his first-ever Tennis match attendance, the Italian F1 driver was there to support his countryman, Sinner, who won in Turin.
Before the finals, the Mercedes driver stated, “Of course, as [an] Italian, I am also a big fan of Jannik. So, I think it is going to be a very tight fight. I think it’s going to end 2-1, but it’s hard to declare the winner. I think Sinner looks very strong. So, I hope for him to win.”
Whether fans came for the match or the unexpected F1 cameo, one thing is clear: Antonelli and Babickova had just as many eyes on them as the action on court.
Fans React to Kimi Antonelli and Girlfriend Eliska Babickova
Antonelli and his girlfriend’s appearance at the ATP Finals turned out to be far more than a casual day out. What began as a simple show of support for fellow Italian Jannik Sinner ended up merging two massive fanbases and igniting a wave of online excitement.
Mesmerized by Babickova’s beauty, one fan commented, “She is beautiful, a princess!” while others wrote, “Gorgeous.” Meanwhile, some fans mistook her for Hollywood actress Megan Fox, “For a second, I think she’s Megan Fox, bro.”
On the other hand, some were just happy to see their two favorite athletes together. “My 2 worlds colliding,” while another wrote, “Champ and a future champ.” One fan stated, “Incredible to see these two champions meet!”
From admiration for Babickova to pride in seeing young Italian stars succeed in their respective sports, the reaction highlighted just how closely the worlds of motorsport and tennis can overlap.
As Antonelli continues to rise through Formula 1 and Sinner cements himself as one of Tennis’ brightest talents, moments like these show how powerful cross-sport connections can be.
