Margot Robbie has been invited by tennis pro Stefanos Tsitsipas to watch his next match – which might not be good news for his girlfriend.
The 24-year-old Greek beat Jiri Lehecka in the Australian Open quarter-finals on Tuesday (January 24).
And it seems Stefanos is using his time in the limelight to try and rub shoulders with Hollywood star Margot, 32 – or at least have her come down to see him play.

After making it through to the semi-finals of the Grand Slam tournament, Stefanos told Jim Courier: “Australia is such a great country.
“I like a lot of Aussie things. One of my favourite actresses comes from Australia, Margot Robbie.”
Jim then asked: “Are you pitching right now? What’s happening? Are you making an offer? What are we seeing here?”
“It would be nice to see her over there one day,” Stefanos replied.
“Are you officially extending an invitation to Margot Robbie? I just want to be crystal clear here,” Jim asked, taking the awkward exchange even further.
“Absolutely,” the tennis star replied.
Stefanos might have some explaining to do to his girlfriend Theodora Petalas over his attempt to win over Margot’s heart.
Stefanos and Theodora first started dating in 2019 and the New York City University graduate has often been snapped cheering him on from the stands.
“It’s a little difficult for us, because she [Theodora] lives in London,” Stefanos told Marie Claire earlier this month.
“But thankfully it hasn’t brought us to extremes. She comes to some tournaments to support me and so we can spend some time together.”
When the two first met, Stefanos admitted it took him a while to express his feelings to Theodora.
“I liked her very much, but I was shy then and did not express my feelings,” he told The Sun last year.
“But two years ago, again in New York, I asked her out on a date.
“I asked her to go to Brooklyn to snap some photos and I think she liked that. I did take some photos, which to this day are my favourites.”
