Katie Boulter boyfriend: Everything we know about Wimbledon star's tennis-playing partner

When Katie Boulter won her first-round match at Wimbledon on Tuesday, it sealed a double celebration for the British star. Boulter, 25, overcame French player Clara Burel 7-5 6-3 to make it through to the second stage for the third time at SW19, only hours after watching her boyfriend do the same.

Alex de Minaur overcame Bolivia's Hugo Dellien 6-1 6-3 7-5, setting up a clash with Britain's Jack Draper on Thursday. The Sydney-born star, who in 2018 made the third round at SW19 before crashing out to the iconic Rafael Nadal, seemed to replicate the form which saw him make the last-16 of the Australian Open in January.

Indeed, the 23-year-old is widely considered a growing star of the sport. In 2020, he made the quarter-finals of the US Open, his best result at a Grand Slam to date. And with five career titles to his name, and a prize money total of over £5.6 million already, de Minaur appears well-placed to soon challenge at major events.

Whilst Australian born, he's not completely Australian bred though. At the age of five, he and his family moved to Spain, and despite a brief return to New South Wales, he went back to residing in Europe since 2015. It's for that reason why the Alicante-based Adolfo Gutierrez remains his long-term coach, although Aussie icon Lleyton Hewitt serves as an advisor.

His last, and perhaps most significant triumph though, came at the Eastbourne International in the build-up to Wimbledon last year.
