Translated from the German by @Saraja
' Since Steffi Graf ended her active tennis career, she has rarely been seen in public. But that was never desirable for the 52-year-old. "I basically have little need for publicity," Graf told Vogue Germany magazine, on whose current cover she can be seen. In times of social media, many people are growing up with a new form of publicity. Admittedly, young people could also derive self-confidence from it.
"But the constant desire to communicate, this awareness of publicity and the handling of it have almost become a must," said Graf. »In any case, it has become more difficult to keep the focus on the essentials, to find the right balance and a balance
Even during my career, my privacy was very important to me, which could have to do with the fact that I was already in the spotlight at such a young age," says the former world number one.'

She looks great - maybe too old for age though. They forgot to pop her collar. So noticeable next to a cover line about that very thing.ti-amie wrote:

Camila Osorio exploring Paris. This was last week, but she's been posting stuff on her Stories too, looks like she's enjoying the city.

And a quick sponsor update. I believe this is not every single one, but the ones that are competing at RG, i.e. Federer is surely still in the Rolex family. It's who they included in their Good Luck at RG message
Rolex ambassadors currently include - Carlos Alcaraz, Bianca Andreescu, Belinda Bencic, Grigor Dimitrov, Taylor Fritz, Caroline Garcia, Coco Gauff, Angelique Kerber, Garbine Muguruza, Lorenzo Musetti, Jelena Ostapenko, Jannik Sinner, and Sloane Stephens

Re: TENNIS PLAYERS (Off-Court Shenanigans)
I think she's just fully matured now. But also, I always remember, she could look quite a bit different to me on-court with her hair up vs. off when her hair was down. Sometimes I'd recognize her immediately, other times not as much and it took a bit. Not Svitolina chameleon like, but not definitely not one note. And right now, on her IG, I can see 3 recent photos, 2 of which I posted here, that don't look nearly as similar as you'd think they should being taken so near in time to one another, so I think it's just the way it is with her.

Mackie McDonald in Paris. Not sure of everyone in the photos, but in the 2nd photo, pretty sure that's Brandon Nakashima 3rd from the right.
