Tennis star Leylah Fernandez22, had never been dating until he applied in a rather exceptional way.
He used his awareness and posted a video on his Instagram account that helped find a dating club.
Namely, a canvas player released an open dating invitation a week ago on Friday on Instagram.
– Do you know what I would like to do, but what I’ve never done? I would like to go on a date. I’m not a fan of dating apps, so I do things in my own way, he said in the video.
Fernandez asked those interested to tell themselves by private message. He said he was going to one hour -long date in his hometown Montreal.
The tennis peak has 357 thousand followers on Instagram, so there was certainly enough dating to queue.
However, he warned the publication in the cover text of a thing that could scare some willing people.
– Ps. You may have to meet my father in advance. Congratulations on the journey.
It is quite rare that a tough class like Fernandez, who has been at its best, ranked 12th in the world statistics of the women’s doubles, presents a public dating announcement.
Father’s idea
The idea of the whole rally started when Fernandez’s father and coach Jorge Heard that his daughter had never been on a date.
– I’ve never had time and I’ve never even been asked. I can’t say why, she said the women’s WTA tour on the website.
Eventually, Dad suggested a public announcement on Instagram. However, there was one condition here: the candidate should meet the father first. This was also suitable for her daughter.
Shortly after Fernandez’s video, his phone flooded messages. According to an article on the WTA website, he received over a hundred posts on the first day.
Fernandez himself goes through all the messages and conveys the most interesting to his father and siblings, who in turn give his own views.
A dating partner does not have to be a tennis.
The first dating activity or place Fernandez has only one wish:
– Something simple where we get to know each other.
He said, for example, a park walk and ice cream would be perfect for him.
