WTA Star Jasmine Paolini's face turned red after she saw football legend Neymar jr in the WTA 1000 finals tournament in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The WTA star couldn't even face Neymar as she held back her smile very hard and she was very shy to see the legend in his eyes. The 32-year-old football legend returned to Football on October 21 this year after a 1 year gap due to the injury. He got the injury last year when playing against Uruguay for his home country.
Last time when Neymar went to a tennis match at the Six Kings Slam Tournament he was booed by the crowd. He is playing for the publicly owned Al Hilal club where he earns 130 million euros per year. But he played only 6 matches for the team so far. Jasmine Paolini faced Elena Rybakina in the WTA finals and she won 7-6(5), 6-4 winning in straight sets. She also won the doubles final against American Tennis stars Desirae and Caroline and increased her prize money from the tournament.
Jasmine meeting her football crush
But after the match during the press conference, she was asked about meeting the football legend and the press meeting was full of laughter. Even in the press, she was very shy when talking about Neymar. She said “I mean he is a nice guy (Starts laughing). When I saw Neymar I was a little bit shy but that was okay at the end I managed to speak (Again started to laugh). I'm all red (Starts smiling again along with the press).
The WTA star was very shy and cute during the press meet and when talking about Neymar she starts to laugh holding her face. This shows how much she loves Neymar Jr. She defeated Elena Rybakina and won her 40th win of the year. The 2024 season was the best season for the Italian as she earned more money in one year than the rest of her career.
