Personal life

Virtanen appeared in two videos on the Finland-based YouTube channel Pongfinity, one titled "Tennis Trick Shots" in July 2019, and another titled "Return a Pro Tennis Serve, Win $1000" in June 2022. Unsurprisingly, no member of the general public was able to return his serve, which resulted in Virtanen winning the $1000 prize.
