Gus Hansen and Caroline Wozniacki
Caroline Wozniacki (in picture) is 20 and hot and the number one ranked female tennis player in the world with a penchant for short skirts that leave nothing to the imagination. And she is dating poker professional Gus Hansen. Apart from their ages (Hansen is 37), they have a lot in common. Both are Danish. Caroline’s father was from Poland but migrated to Denmark after signing up for a Danish club football team. Both live in Monaco. And both have a tennis connection. Hansen was a local tennis champion in his younger days.
Despite Caroline’s number one status in tennis, Hansen is probably more popular in Denmark, especially with the girls. Hansen’s achievements at the poker tables are well known, but he was voted one of People Magazine’s 50 Sexiest Men in 2004. He was also voted the sexiest male poker player in Doyle Brunson’s list. Hansen is a strong believer in physical fitness and takes prop bets on personal athletic challenges. His boxing match against fellow poker professional Theo Jorgensen is still fresh in memory.
It is rumored that Hansen and Caroline first started seeing each other during the tennis Australian Open in 2010. Thereafter Hansen was a frequently spotted figure in the tennis circuit. The pairing became more apparent when the two spent last Christmas together in Thailand and it was fully out in the open during the 2011 Australian open. Hansen was seen seated in Caroline’s box during her quarter final win over Francesca Schiavone by an international television audience. Being in Australia at that time suits Hansen because it coincides with the Aussie Millions poker tournament, an event which he won in 2007. Those who follow Carorine’s Twitter will get frequent references to Hansen. At around the time of the Australian Open Caroline had Tweeted, “And also just met my good friend Gus Hansen (Poker player) and had a coffee
.”
Going against the popular adage, Hansen has been lucky in love and in gambling. This period has been good to Hansen at the poker tables as well. In 2011 so far Hansen has won about $4.5 million in nosebleed action at the online poker room Full Tilt and is up over $6 million over the past six months.
