Players celebrate Valentine's Day around the world

DOHA — It's Valentine's Day and you know what that means: social media posts featuring love, flowers and kisses.

"Of course, I see lots of posts. Everyone is posting the picture of their better half," Elina Svitolina said on Wednesday. "But yeah, it's fine. I'm with my second love, with tennis, with my tennis racquet, with my tennis balls. So yeah, this is my love, my second love."

World No. 1 Caroline Wozniacki is also away from her significant other (fiancé David Lee) this week.

"He sent me flowers and some chocolates and that was very sweet, and we normally just celebrate nicely with a nice dinner," Wozniacki said. "I feel like it shouldn't just be one day where you celebrate each other, and the love for everyone. So I think it should happen every day."

Here's a roundup of posts from this day of love:

1

Daria Gavrilova has been dating fellow pro Luke Saville since their junior days.

Though Kristina Mladenovic is in Doha and her boyfriend Dominic Thiem is far away in Argentina, the Frenchwoman still made time to post a photo.

Thiem posted his own in celebration of the day, and their newly public relationship.

Like Mladenovic, Karolina Pliskova is in Doha but her fiancé got a shoutout.

Elena Vesnina, another Doha competitor, received flowers, most likely from her husband.

Even Svitolina eventually balked and posted a message to her followers.

Valentine's Day isn't just for the women though, as Bob Bryan....

And if you have no one to celebrate this sort-of holiday with, that's OK too. Just look at Laura Robson.
