Nick Kyrgios appears to have his eye on a Costeen Hatzi lookalike following reports of his split from the influencer in March.
The tennis player, 30, has sparked romance rumours with Love Island star Mia Dalkos after he was spotted leaving flirty comments on her Instagram page last week.
The Greek-Australian, 23, whose real name is Efthimia Dalkos, attracted the athlete's attention late last month and has appeared to return his affections.
A spark first seemed to appear on May 25 when Mia posted a video of herself at the hair salon, looking the spitting image of Nick's ex-partner Costeen.
Nick left a flirty eye emoji beneath the post and Mia promptly responded with her own cheeky smiling emoji.

The following day, Mia shared a gallery of photos from her sister's wedding as she stepped out at the ceremony in a stunning black dress.
'Beautiful,' Nick wrote beneath the images, to which Mia also responded with a red love heart.
Just a few days later, a fan noticed the flirty exchange and asked: 'Are you guys dating now?'
Neither Nick or Mia have publicly confirmed anything outside of these exchanges.
When Daily Mail Australia reached out to Nick's representatives for comment, they assured the pair are just 'good friends' who have known each other for some time.
'They have know each other for a while and are good friends! Big Gordon Ramsay fans also,' the spokesperson said.
Costeen, 25, who began dating Nick in 2021, delivered a parting message to the tennis star last month following their split.
Rumours had been bubbling away over the past few months the couple had broken up, with Nick appearing to unfollow the social media star on Instagram.

The tennis star sparked rumours they split after he also removed Costeen's initials from his Instagram bio.
Meanwhile, Costeen shared multiple cryptic posts, uploading a TikTok in which she appeared to mouth the words: 'Who the f*** did I marry? So at this point in time, I have filed for divorce.'
She then confirmed the pair ended things on good terms, wishing the best for her ex-partner.
'I'm loving my work and doing content every day,' she told The Herald Sun.
'We haven't spoken, relationships come to an end. I believe it's for the best. I hope he finds peace and happiness within himself.
'I definitely entered the relationship with pure intentions. I loved him and thought we had a great connection.'
Meanwhile, Mia, who appeared on Love Island Australia last year, made headlines in December when she enraged fans by admitting her relationship on the show was fake and she was then romantically involved with a man named Christo.
The admission followed months of fervent online speculation one of the 2024 female contestants had applied for the reality dating show multiple times, despite having a boyfriend of six years named Christo.
Mia, from Adelaide, entered the villa as a 'Greek goddess' bombshell and found an instant spark on-screen with Sydney-based Niko Fotopoulos, who she said she only had eyes for after one day of filming.
Taking to her Instagram Stories in December after the show wrapped, Mia shocked fans by confirming she and Niko 'were never together'.
'No we're not still together. We actually never were together officially. We spoke for a few weeks after the villa but yeah, nah. We're civil. That's it,' she said in response to a fan question.
The brunette beauty also clapped back at rumours she'd had a long-term boyfriend before the series. In doing so, she named her current partner: 'His name is Christo.'
'We were on talking terms. We were not in a committed relationship. He's talking to others. I'm talking to others,' Mia said as she shot down the allegations.
'We're very civil and we're actually friends. People just love to talk a lot of s*** though. Those rumours, man.'
In September, Love Island 2022 winner Claudia Bonifazio made bombshell claims one of the 2024 contestants had a boyfriend of six years, but had applied to the series three 'years in a row' to realise her dream of becoming an influencer.
The reality star, who is also from Adelaide, took to social media to put an unnamed female Love Island applicant on blast.
'If you have a boyfriend, don't apply to go on a reality dating show years in a row because it just proves what you're there for,' she said.
Many South Australian Reddit users then claimed the contestant was Mia and that her alleged boyfriend is a Greek man named Christo, who wasn't able to be on Love Island due to a prior criminal offence.
'He dropped her off at the airport for Love Island and wanted to go on the show with her, but was told no because he's facing criminal charges for money laundering,' one Reddit user claimed.
Yet another person claimed they saw Mia two weeks earlier at Lucky's Beach Club with Christo, who was spotted still wearing an ankle bracelet.
In 2021, the Greek Herald reported Christo Nickolas, then 32, had been charged with two counts of money laundering.
Mia, in her Instagram Stories, said she has 'no regrets at all' about going on the show.
'What about the rumours that you had a boyfriend back home during filming?' one fan asked in the Q&A session.
'Guys, it actually baffles me that for a second people think that "my partner" would be okay for me to go on national TV to meet another man. That is crazy,' Mia said as she firmly denied the allegations.
Mia's official Love Island biography stated at the time: 'She recently got out of a long-term relationship that lasted for six years.'
