Christian Garin Marries Melanie Goldberg in Zapallar

Chilean tennis player Christian Garin married his girlfriend Melanie Goldberg in Zapallar, Chile. Goldberg shared the wedding news on social media. The pair had been dating for many months, so the marriage isn’t a surprise.

Christian Garin reached a career-high ranking of world number 17 in 2021. He has won five ATP titles – all on clay. His best grand slam result came at the 2022 Wimbledon Championships where he reached the quarterfinals of a grand slam for the first time in his career. In 2013, he became the youngest Chilean to win an ATP tour match.

Despite decent results, 2022 was a challenging year for Garin. He was struggling with a shoulder injury for most of the year which prevented him from playing his best tennis.

As a junior, Garin won the 2013 French Open boy’s title beating Alexander Zverev. He also reached the boy’s doubles final at Roland Garros in 2013.
