Alex de Minaur copped a withering reply from his fiancee Katie Boulter when the Aussie grand slam hope posted a photo of him muscling up on the court - just after he narrowly dodged taking far more revealing pics for a nude calendar. The 25-year-old treated his followers to an image of him with his biceps rippling in a sleeveless top on Monday night accompanied by the caption 'Prep done.... Go time now', with fellow Aussie stars like Alexi Popyrin and Matt Ebden giving it the thumbs-up.
However, Boulter was having none of it, writing, 'Stop trying to thirst trap you have a fiancé,' referring to the slang for a post on social media that's intended to make people attracted to them. The playful reply was a hit with tennis fans, who either laughed at her 'wicked' reply or joked that she should let him keep posting photos of his physique.
On Monday, de Minaur explained how close he came to getting all his gear off for a calendar as part of his participation in an NFL fantasy football league. The Australian Open's eighth seed and some friends including British tennis star Cam Norrie are competing against each other to see who can pick the best imaginary team - and the entrant who gets the worst result is presented with a choice between punishments.
Alex de Minaur was brought down a peg or two by his fiancée Katie Boulter when he posted this shot to Instagram. Boulter delighted tennis fans with her playful reply to his beefcake photo. The Australian Open's eighth seed and Boulter closed out 2024 on a wonderful note when they announced their engagement.
