Game, Set, Onlyfans: How Tennis Stars Like Nick Kyrgios Are Serving Up Exclusive Content

Tennis Meets OnlyFans: A Match Made in Digital Heaven

Hey there, tennis fans - have you noticed something a little spicier happening off the court lately? OnlyFans, the subscription platform that’s been turning heads since its UK launch in 2016, is making waves in the world of professional tennis. What started as a space often tied to, let’s say, more intimate content, has evolved into a hub where athletes are connecting with fans on a whole new level.

For the uninitiated, OnlyFans lets creators share exclusive content with paying subscribers, and it’s grown massively - just last year, the company shelled out over £100m in taxes to the UK government. While some might turn their noses up at the platform’s reputation, tennis players are jumping on board, proving there’s more to it than meets the eye.

From rising stars to controversial champs, the ATP and WTA tours are buzzing with names who’ve signed up. And trust us, they’re not just serving aces - they’re serving content that’s got fans subscribing faster than you can say ‘game, set, match.’

Big Names on the Platform: Nick Kyrgios and Beyond

Leading the charge is none other than Nick Kyrgios, the Aussie bad boy of tennis who’s never shy about making headlines. Back in December 2023, he joined OnlyFans, calling it a game-changer.

“This platform is revolutionizing social media, and I’m thrilled to be part of the movement,”

Kyrgios said, hinting at how it’s reshaping fan interactions.

He’s not alone in this digital doubles match. WTA player Sachia Vickery turned to OnlyFans last year after a shoulder injury sidelined her for six months, cutting off her income from prize money. With tennis being an individual sport where earnings depend on wins - and not a steady salary - players lower in the rankings often struggle to cover costs like coaching and travel.

Vickery found the platform to be a financial lifeline during her recovery. Meanwhile, other names like Chloe Paquet (who joined in March) and Alexandre Muller, who cheekily calls himself the ‘sexiest professional tennis player’ since signing up in May, are adding their own flair to the mix. Muller even predicts more of his peers will follow suit - and we’re all ears!

Pedro Martinez: Serving Up Exclusive Insights

One of the latest to join the OnlyFans court is world No. 52 Pedro Martinez, who recently chatted with Tennis365 about his decision. After a nudge from his manager, Martinez saw it as a chance to get closer to fans without giving everything away for free on social media. The result? Content that’s as unique as a perfectly timed volley.

Don’t expect steamy snaps from Martinez, though - that’s more Muller’s style. Instead, the Spanish star shares behind-the-scenes goodies like gym workouts and practice sessions at iconic spots like Roland Garros or Centre Court. “I’m posting stuff you won’t see on Instagram or Twitter, like prep for Spain’s Davis Cup qualifiers,” he explained, teasing content that brings fans right into his world.

With career earnings over $5m, Martinez isn’t exactly scraping by, but he admits tennis is a pricey sport. From coaches to physios to globe-trotting expenses, every extra bit of income helps. “You’re always spending, so it’s nice to bring in more than you let out,” he quipped, echoing a sentiment many players share.

The Future of OnlyFans in Sports: A Growing Trend?

As Martinez and Muller stand as some of the highest-ranked male players on OnlyFans - with Kyrgios currently down in the 600s - the question lingers: will top-tier names like Carlos Alcaraz or Jannik Sinner ever join the party? Martinez remains optimistic, pointing to other sports as proof that even the biggest stars are hopping on board.

“Let’s see what the future holds,” he mused, name-dropping fellow OnlyFans athletes like MMA fighter Charles Oliveira. He believes the platform offers a unique window into athletes’ lives - stuff you won’t catch on traditional social media. Whether it’s rare training clips or personal moments, it’s all about building that closer connection.

For now, OnlyFans is carving out a bold space in tennis, blending sport with digital intimacy. As more players consider joining, one thing’s clear: this platform is growing faster than a Kyrgios serve, and we’re here for every sizzling update. So, who’s next to subscribe - on or off the court?
