JANNIK SINNER has sparked romance rumours after he got up close and personal with Lara Leito.
The Russian model is the ex-partner of Oscar winner and Hollywood star Adrien Brody.
Sinner, 23, was dating fellow tennis star Anna Kalinskaya but they took a break in November, having started in April 2024.
They were thought to have started dating after meeting at practice sessions.
He has now been pictured with Lara, 31, by Italian outlet Chi magazine at the Monte Carlo Country Club, France.
The report claims that she greeted Sinner’s coaching team and filmed the ace from the stands.
It was also suggested that Sinner and the model were hugging at the end of the training session.
Later, she was spotted exiting his Audi RS6 ABT Legacy Edition supercar with a kiss.
Lara dated Brody for six years after they met at the Cannes Film Festival in 2012.
She has previously featured for fashion magazines Vogue and L’Officiel.
When dating Kalinskaya, Sinner was regularly seen supporting her at matches.
The couple even shared a kiss after the Italian won the US Open over Daniil Medvedev in September.
In May 2024, the ATP No.1 confirmed he was dating the Russian tennis player.
He said: “I’m with Anna, yes, but we keep everything very confidential.
“You know my confidentiality… I won’t say more.”
Sinner’s new reported romance is believed to have started during his three-month ban from the sport.
He tested positive for clostebol on two occasions in March last year.
His explanation for the anabolic steroid in his system was accepted by the doping authorities.
He claimed that it entered his system in a massage from his physio, who had treated a cut on his finger with a spray that contained clostebol.
Sinner was cleared of fault and negligence by an independent tribunal.
