Aussie tennis star Jelena Dokic's 'very special person' revealed as Melbourne hospitality worker Yane Veselinov
Jelena Dokic has officially gone public with new boyfriend Yane Veselinov after months of speculation about the mystery man. Dokic, 42, took to Instagram on Monday to reveal the identity of her new beau months after published bombshell footage of the pair getting cosy at Melbourne Airport. "You are my calm, safe, peaceful and happy place. So glad I found you," Dokic wrote alongside a romantic snap with her new partner. It can now be revealed that the new love in Jelena's life is a hospitality operations manager who describes himself on Instagram as a "food and wine enthusiast, pleasure seeker and life enjoyer". Dokic stoked speculation about her love life on Sunday after sharing a glimpse of a night out with a mystery date two years on from her shock split from Brazilian-born Tin Bukic. The Aussie tennis great has just wrapped up commentary duties covering the iconic Wimbledon tennis tournament, the same event where she reached the semifinal in 2000 at just 16 years old. This year's tournament saw Poland's Iga Swiatek thrash American Amanda Anisimova in the women's final, while Italy's Jannik Sinner defeated Spain's Carlos Alcaraz in a four-set thriller in the men's tournament. On Sunday, Dokic marked the end of Wimbledon fever by sharing a photo of a cocktail in a ritzy restaurant via her Instagram. 'A little mid Wimbledon drink with a very special person,' the retired tennis great wrote in the caption. The former World No. 4 did not reveal the identity of the 'special person' but her loyal fans flooded the comment section asking if Dokic was back on the dating scene. 'Is this what I think it is! So happy to hear this gorgeous Jelena,' one fan wrote. 'Enjoy your time with someone special.' 'Like the sound of a special person Jelena, enjoy your time together,' a second follower wrote. Dokic split from her previous partner, Bukic, in late 2022 after an almost two-decade-long relationship. She recently opened up on the Mental As Anyone podcast about how the demise of her relationship jeopardised her plans to start a family. 'I was in a relationship for almost 19 years from the age of 20, and right when we split up, we were about to start trying for a family,' Jelena said. 'I actually think I would be a good mum, to be honest; I love kids.' Dokic revealed she was now planning to start a family as a 'single parent' and was open to exploring adoption. 'It is something I would like to do because I love kids,' she said. 'I didn't have the best experience (but) if I was, let's say, a single mum and adopted one day, it would have all the love in the world.'

Jannick Sinner reveals secret Wimbledon bet that could keep Darren Cahill in his team
Jannik Sinner's Wimbledon title might mean he will be able to keep Darren Cahill around as one of his coaches beyond this season, all thanks to a friendly wager they made before Sunday's final at the All England Club. Back in January, while Sinner was on his way to winning the Australian Open, it came out that Cahill would be leaving his role as one of the top-ranked player's two coaches at the end of 2025. After Sinner beat Carlos Alcaraz 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 for the championship at Wimbledon on Sunday, Cahill was asked whether he would reconsider the decision to depart the team. "I don't want to answer this," Cahill responded. "You know what? You just need to ask Jannik that." So an Italian reporter followed those instructions and did put the topic to Sinner, who smiled and paused. "It depends whether I want to tell the truth or not," Sinner said. And then he proceeded to explain the whole situation in Italian, revealing that maybe Cahill's exit is not set in stone, after all. That's because the two of them had a conversation on Saturday night. "We had a bet before the final. He said, 'If you win tomorrow, you can decide whether or not I stay,'" Sinner said. "Now the choice is mine. I've always looked for a person who is honest, a person who gives me a lot, not necessarily only on the tennis court, but [about] how to live." Sinner went on to say that he would love to have Cahill stick around. Sinner also did acknowledge that if Cahill did continue to work alongside co-coach Simone Vagnozzi, Cahill probably would not travel on tour as much as he does currently. "The season is long. There are a lot of tournaments. You never know," Sinner said. "But let's just say I won the bet, and so we'll see what happens." AP
