A Twitter handle later went on to tweet a picture of Anisimova and Berrettini from one of the concerts, thus igniting speculation that the pair were dating. While some users gave their two cents on the supposed relationship, others opined that they could simply be friends.
@ninjaga20 This is actually crazy. It’s the first time I’ve ever talked to Matteo and even Genie. I just went to some places with my friend in the beginning, and we were all with Dave
The 20-year-old was quick to rebuff claims about her relationship with the Italian. She revealed how she had her first conversations with Berrettini and Bouchard during the concert, and that they were all in the company of Miami-based hotelier and businessman, David Grutman.
"This is actually crazy," Anisimova wrote on Twitter. "It’s the first time I’ve ever talked to Matteo and even Genie [Eugenie Bouchard]. I just went to some places with my friend in the beginning, and we were all with Dave."
@ninjaga20 It’s actually sad how much unnecessary drama is created by people on social media, do something good with it instead. Look at what’s going on in the world, instead of making up stupid sh*
Anisimova proceeded to label the speculation "unnecessary drama" and urged users to do something useful on social media instead.
"It’s actually sad how much unnecessary drama is created by people on social media, do something good with it instead," she continued. "Look at what’s going on in the world, instead of making up stupid sh*."

The World No. 41 suffered a first-round exit at the hands of Shelby Rogers at the Miami Open earlier this week, while Matteo Berretini withdrew from the tournament owing to a right hand injury. Eugenie Bouchard, meanwhile, is still recovering from a shoulder injury she sustained last year and is uncertain about her return to action.
