Wimbledon is in full swing as the international tennis tournament heads another day closer towards the epic grand final.
Fans of the sport will be cheering on from the stands as their favourites compete to win the legendary status of a Wimbledon champion.
The prestigious event is the oldest tennis tournament in the world, dating back to 1877, so there's always plenty of pressure on the competitors – as well as their partners.
A fashion designer, a tennis ace and a drove of international influencers are among those who have been supporting their tennis husbands and boyfriends so far this year.
But it's not all fun and games for the Wimbledon WAGS, as they sit and watch in nervous anticipation as their other halves battle it out for the distinguished title.
At the forefront of tennis WAGS everywhere is Kim Murray, who is always on hand to cheer on two-time Wimbledon winner husband Andy, who recently beat Australia's James Duckworth in his first round match on Monday, June 27.
Meanwhile we're expecting to see the wife of reigning champion Novak Djokovic, Jelena, take to the stands; although she is known to skip some of her husband's matches.
We can't blame her, especially when tennis often takes places over the course of two or three hours.
So let's take a look at all of the partners of this year’s Wimbledon hopefuls…
Kim Sears
Kim Murray, 34, is popular with fans due to her passionate displays of support for her 35 year old sportsman hubby Andy.
The couple started dating in 2005 and have been married for seven years.
They now live in a £5m Surrey mansion and have four children together: Sophia, five, Edie, three, Teddie, and their fourth child, a daughter who was born in March 2021 but whose name has not been made public.
Katie Boulter
A British tennis star in her own right, 25 year old Katie Boulter from Leicester understands the high stakes of the court better than most.
When she isn't competing herself, she'll instead be cheering on her Australian boyfriend Alex De Minaur, who is currently ranked as World No. 27.
The pair have been dating since 2021 and make for an impressive tennis power couple.
"There’s no place like home. Grateful for the opportunity," Katie said of her return to SW19 following a spinal stress fracture in 2019.
Best of luck to them both!
Louise Jacobi
Textiles designer Louise Jacobi will be watching on from the stands as her World No. 12 boyfriend Cameron Norrie, 26, takes on Spain's Jaume Munar in his second round match on Wednesday, June 29.
Louise has been showering Cameron with support on her social media for the last two years, and shares regular posts on their romantic getaways around the world.
She might work as a textiles consultant for New York-based Please Don't Touch, but that doesn't mean Louise won't be court side during Cameron's Wimbledon appearance.
She was still in the stands in October last year when Norrie became the first Brit to win the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, California.
Jelena Djokovic
Perhaps the most pressure lies on the shoulders of Jelena Djokovic as the wife of defending champion Novak Djokovic.
Novak is a six-time winner of the Wimbledon Championships and has returned in 2022 to secure a seventh title.
So this means Jelena, 36, has spent a large portion of her married life supporting her husband on the tennis circuit while raising their two children Tara and Stefan.
Fortunately, the pair have some grounded relationship roots that reach back all the way to their teenage years before marrying in 2014.
The mother-of-two describes herself as 'open-minded' with a 'never satiating hunger for knowledge' on her blog.
She also opens up about her trip Ecuador to learn to mediate, and shares tips on 'how to find your true self'.
Nina Ghaibi
Loved-up couple Nina Ghaibi, 22, and French Canadian player Felix Auger Aliassime have been dating since early 2019 and aren't shy about posting pictures together online.
On the flip side, Nina tends to keep a lower WAG profile than her Wimbledon kin, and it's not known whether she has made the journey to London for this year's competition.
But despite the game of tennis keeping Felix busy, he seemingly always makes time for his girlfriend and recently stole her away for a pre-Christmas getaway to Monaco.
"Happy birthday to the one who makes all moments feel so special," he once wrote in an Instagram tribute post.
Felix added: "I’m so blessed and privileged to share this life with you."
Abby Querrey
American model Abby Querrey first met and began dating husband Sam in 2015, after he appeared on a stint on US dating reality show Millionaire Matchmaker.
Luckily, if you can call it that, Sam didn't find love on the show but eventually tied the knot with Abby three years later in 2018.
In a quirky (and iconic) twist, their French Bulldog served as a bridesmaid.
Now, the couple share two sons: Ford, two, and 19 month old Owen, of whom have all made the trip to the UK to support their World No. 157 dad compete in Wimbledon.
Costeen Hatzi
Tennis bad boy Nick Kyrgios, 27, has had a number of high-profile relationships throughout his career in the Australian tennis scene, including Russian tennis player Anna Kalinskaya and on-off girlfriend Chiara Passari.
He is currently dating 22 year old influencer Costeen Hatzi, who has been travelling the world with her sporty beau and has made the trip to the UK to support him at Wimbledon.
The couple went public with their relationship in December 2021, and while it might be relatively new, they appear to be completely loved-up.
Psychology student Costeen recently celebrated her 22nd birthday, and was showered in affection from Nick online.
He wrote in a birthday post: "My beautiful Costeen, the most amazing person I've ever met. You've been the biggest blessing in my life and I'm so incredibly thankful that I get to call you my best friend.
"No matter what we do, I always get excited because I know that we are going to make every little moment enjoyable. There is nothing I love more than being able to make you laugh and seeing that amazing smile of yours.
"I'm so incredibly proud of how far we have come, and now to say we have a home together. I cannot wait for all our adventures, big or small, or around the world."
Eugenia De Martino
Model WAG Eugenia De Martino has backing her Argentine tennis boyfriend since the two started dating back in 2019.
The influencer will often post photos of the couples adventures around the world, including recent trips to Mallorca, Paris, Rome and Barcelona.
Most recently, she shared a candid snap in a brown tracksuit in central London, suggesting that she was in town to support 'Shorty' Diego at SW19.
In a recent Instagram post, translated from Spanish, she wrote: "The luck of having someone who supports you in what you do and in your work, motivates you to be better and makes you believe in yourself and does not hesitate for a second, who accompanies you in everything, who helps you grow.
"Never ask less. Love is that. And I found everything and more in you.
"Thank you for being such an unconditional partner @dieschwartzman! I love you infinite!!'
