Alexandre Muller calls himself “the sexiest professional tennis player.” That’s the single line in his OnlyFans bio.
“A lot of tennis players are going to sign with OnlyFans this year. I’m happy I won’t be the only one with Kyrgios,” Muller told RG and CLAY in an interview.
The world No. 39 has been sponsored by OnlyFans for over a year now. The platform, famous initially for adult content, allows creators from diverse fields—fitness, music, cooking, and now increasingly sports—to charge for access to their content. Muller and Nick Kyrgios stand out as its most prominent tennis ambassadors.
Muller clarified that his sponsorship isn't about producing erotic material: “OnlyFans is trying to change their image. It’s not only about erotic stuff. That’s why they sponsor me.”
However, he does post content in his underwear during massage or recovery sessions, and fans can purchase pay-per-view videos starting at $5, including clips of him showering in locker rooms.
Has he received special requests? “Of course I’ve had some, but I can’t share them—it’s personal!” Muller laughed.
A Season of Success and Struggle
The first months of 2025 have been exceptional for Muller, marking significant career milestones: his first ATP title in Hong Kong, his first ATP 500 final in Rio de Janeiro, and a semifinal appearance at Copa Cap Cana. "I hope at my best ranking. I wish I can continue the year like this. I'm winning a lot of matches since the beginning of 2025. So I’ll try to win more and more and we will see," Muller said optimistically.
Competing in South America, a challenging environment for European players, Muller reached the final in Rio, outperforming prominent Europeans who struggled in the humid and passionate conditions.
His memorable victory against Brazilian star Joao Fonseca in Rio was notable given the excitement around Fonseca's recent Buenos Aires title. Muller praised his opponent: "He is the next big thing in tennis. For sure. He's playing very, very great. He's already a superstar in Brazil. He has a bright future."
Battling with Crohn’s Disease
Complicating Muller’s tennis journey is his ongoing battle with Crohn’s disease. The condition profoundly affects his daily routines, particularly on match days.
"I suffer irritation before the match, during the match and after it. I go a lot to the toilet during match days because it's very stressful," Muller shared. "Just to go and play when it's very hot, very humid. As a consequence, I enter the court dehydrated. It's difficult to manage. But for the moment I'm doing great. I have it under control."
Mental resilience is critical for Muller in managing his health challenges: "It's a big point for me to have a good mentality on the court. It helps me to be stronger. I try to manage it."
Looking ahead to Roland-Garros, where no French male has claimed victory since 1983, Muller remains hopeful about his and his compatriots' chances.
"I think we have some very good players right now. Arthur Fils, he made the quarters in Indian Wells, super close to the semis. He can play very good on clay and he became the number one French player. I'm playing good this year. There's Ugo (Humbert) and many other fantastic players. So I hope one, two or three players are going to play well in Roland Garros this year and make a deep run," Muller concluded confidently.
