With tournaments like Wimbledon and the Australian Open carrying the stars of the international tennis circuit all around the world with their epic entourages in tow, it's hard not to get caught up in the inherent glamour of the sport and its charismatic, world-famous players.
But just as captivating as the action on-court is the action on the sidelines, where the wives, girlfriends, boyfriends, husbands and partners of tennis's biggest stars congregate to cheer on their significant others.
The players' box is where some of the most fascinating social interactions take place, and it's also a sartorial hot spot. Who could forget, for example, Mirka Federer's sensational engagement ring captivating the crowd at Wimbledon?
With that in mind, we've broken down some of the faces you'll become familiar with when tuning into the tennis-from who they are, to what they do, and how they met their sporty other half.

ROGER FEDERER WIFE 2022 :
Roger Federer's wife Miroslava 'Mirka' Federer is arguably one of the most glamorous tennis wives around, often seen courtside rocking a blowdry that would make Kate Middleton envious.
The Swiss champ met his wife at the Sydney Olympics in 2000 after the pair both travelled to Australia to compete for Switzerland in the tennis.
But it wasn't long before Mirka caught his eye and they then spent their entire trip by each other's side. In fact, Federer revealed that Sydney was the place they shared their first kiss.
"We spent two weeks together, that's how we got to know each other, and on the last day before we left, we kissed for the first time in Sydney," he said in the past. "So Australia is a big place for me to come back to."
They tied the knot in 2009 and have twin girls Myla and Charlene, both 10, and twin boys, Lenny and Leo, both five. Federer isn't competing at this year's Australian Open, but we hope to see them down under soon!

They welcomed their first child in September 2017, a daughter named Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr, and two months later the couple tied the knot. Ohanian has accompanied Williams on her recent trip to the Australian Open. He's shared sweet videos of their daughter Alexis in the car on the way to matches.

They did it in spectacular fashion too, by reenacting the famous Titanic 'King of the world' scene while on vacation in Mexico.
However, the couple went their separate ways in August when they unfollowed each other on social media. In October last year, Patea announced she was expecting a baby and that Zverev was the father.

"Lots of emotions today watching you play your last match. So proud to have been by your side during epic wins and emotional losses," the retired NBA star wrote on Instagram.
"I'm thrilled for the next chapter together, filled with great food and wine, endless travel, and athletic babies! I got your back for life, bring on the future!" The couple married in June 2019 after dating for three years.
