After Australian Open Final Loss, Spotlight on Sabalenka’s Partner Georgios Frangulis

Oakberry’s founder blends sponsorship with courtside support during the Belarusian star’s recent run.

Overview

  • Aryna Sabalenka fell to Elena Rybakina in the Australian Open final, capping a month that included a Brisbane title and a fourth straight Melbourne final run reported with Georgios Frangulis visible in her camp.
  • Frangulis, 37, is a Brazilian entrepreneur best known for founding Oakberry in 2016, a global açaí chain reported to have more than 600 stores across over 35 countries.
  • Coverage frequently estimates his wealth at roughly $75–100 million (or £60–80 million), attributing the figure largely to Oakberry’s growth.
  • The pair’s relationship followed Sabalenka’s Oakberry partnership announced in January 2024, with the couple public by May 2024 and Frangulis regularly seen in her player box at major events.
  • Reports also note his motorsport ties, including participation in Porsche GT3 events and Oakberry’s sponsorship presence in Formula 1 that aligned with their paddock appearances.
