Katie Boulter makes brutal tongue-in-cheek joke about boyfriend Alex de Minaur’s funky match routine
British No. 1 Katie Boulter playfully disowned boyfriend Alex de Minaur after his actions in his win over Gael Monfils this weekend.
The pair, who have been dating since 2021, regularly poke fun at each other off the court.
De Minaur started the fighting talk by claiming he knew all of Boulter's weaknesses ahead of a potential meeting at the United Cup in December.
However, Great Britain and Australia were kept apart and now Boutler has seized her turn to fire a cheeky dig at her other half.
De Minaur, ranked No. 11 in the world, is currently one of eight players competing in The Ultimate Tennis Showdown (UTS) in Norway.
The 24-year-old swept aside French veteran Gael Monfils in his first round-robin match 15-12, 17-8, 16-9.

But it was the 'Demon's' post-match celebration that stole the show after he began dancing to the music that blared out in Oslo.
De Minaur put one hand on his hip and the other on his head as he swayed his hips from side to side with a broad smile on his face.
His moves didn't escape the attention of Boutler watching from home, as she shared a video of the dance on her Instagram story.
The 27-year-old playfully captioned the post: "Someone come get their boy because he’s not mine."
