Carlos Alcaraz is hogging the limelight for his professional front. For the unversed, the 22-year-old Spanish tennis player is all set to make his debut in the 2026 Barcelona Open. Yes, you read it right. Carlos will compete against Finnish tennis player, Otto Virtanen at the 2026 Barcelona Open. Recently, the Spaniard lost his World No. 1 title to Jannik Sinner at the 2026 Monte Carlo Masters tournament. Amid the buzz, surrounding his debut in the Barcelona Open, find out whether he is single or is dating someone secretly.
Carlos Alcaraz became the youngest player to complete the career Grand Slam by defeating tennis legend, Novak Djokovic at the 2026 Australian Open. However, his recent defeat to Italian professional tennis player, Jannik Sinner made him lose the World No. 1 rank. He can only retain this position by winning the 2026 Barcelona Open title. After losing to Jannik, Carlos shared with the media that he didn’t play well at the important moments.
Amid his debut in the 2026 Barcelona Open, the attention has shifted to Carlos Alcaraz’s love life. Fans are eager to know whether Carlos has a special someone cheering for him as he makes his debut at the Barcelona Open. It is noteworthy to mention that Carlos reportedly got marriage proposals from his female fans. However, recently, when Carlos was asked whether his heart had been taken, he said:
"No, I’m free. I’m free. I’m free."
While Carlos Alcaraz is publicly single, time and again, his name was linked with many girls. Most recently, Carlos was linked with South Korean DJ, Peggy Gou. The duo sparked dating speculations when Peggy was spotted in Carlos’ player box during his quarter-final match in Melbourne on January 27 2026. Peggy was seen enthusiastically cheering for Carlos from the stands. They were also spotted enjoying dinner together in Seoul. However, the 22-year-old Spanish tennis player dismissed the rumours and called Peggy a "cool friend." During a post-match interview, Carlos said:
"Yes, she's a friend. She's really, really cool, and I better win the next round if I want to see her playing [live on stage] so I'm just happy to see her around. Just got great support from her, which is really, really cool."
Before Peggy, Carlos was linked with Brooks Nader. The dating rumours involving them swirled on the internet in September 2025. Later, Brook’s sister, Grace Ann Nader’s comment further fuelled the dating buzz. Speaking to E! News, Grace said, "The rumours are true. Dating is such a loose term. But I do know he's the man of the hour." The 22-year-old Spaniard sparked dating rumours with fellow tennis player, Emma Raducanu. Fans of the duo also shipped them. However, Emma debunked the rumours and shared that they were "just friends."
Carlos was linked with his childhood friend, Maria Gonzalez Gimenez in 2022. According to a report by The Sun, Maria plays for Murcia Club de Tenis, a Spanish tennis club. The Daily Mail reported that Carlos and Maria are childhood friends and they grew up in El Palmar, Murcia. The duo kept their relationship away from the limelight. An outlet, Tennis Tonic, shared a wholesome picture from Carlos’ Instagram Stories in which he was seen kissing Maria’s cheek. The caption further fuelled romance rumours. He wrote, "I miss you" in Spanish.
Carlos and Maria neither acknowledged nor denied their relationship; it is not clear when they had split. In a 2023 interview, Carlos, in a subtle way, confirmed his breakup. The Spanish tennis player highlighted that he was single for the last 18 months. He added that being a tennis player, he needs to travel a lot, which makes his relationship complicated.
