Emma Raducanu is a 23-year-old British professional tennis player and the 2021 US Open champion. Currently the British No. 1, she is ranked World No. 29 as of January 2026. She is widely known for her historic achievement as the first Open Era qualifier to win a Grand Slam singles title. Emma started the 2026 season with a decent record, at 2–3. She is the top seed for the Transylvania Open in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, which is starting February 1, 2026. Beyond her on-court endeavours, Emma Raducanu is an ambassador for various global brands and was awarded an MBE by King Charles III in 2021 for her contributions to tennis.
Emma Raducanu has emphasised in various interviews that her bond with Carlos Alcaraz dates back to their breakout year of 2021. She noted that as players become more successful, they value long-standing, genuine connections with those they knew before they were famous. Although the exact time period of the two Tennis aces' first meeting is not publicly known, Emma's remarks indicated that the duo have definitely known each other for about five-six years.
Tennis stars, Carlos Alcaraz and Emma Raducanu, were romantically linked in June 2025, and their relationship began to gain significant momentum. While fans had occasionally shipped the two since their simultaneous breakout at the 2021 US Open, specific dating speculation was triggered by several high-profile interactions in mid-2025. Alcaraz and Emma's dating rumours first sparked when it was announced that the pair would team up for the revamped USD 1 million mixed doubles event at the 2025 US Open.
Speculations intensified when Emma Raducanu was spotted in the stands at the Queen's Club Championships (HSBC Championships) in London, supporting Alcaraz during his matches. The duo's on-court chemistry during a joint practice session at Wimbledon and a pre-Wimbledon event on June 27, 2025, further fueled the dating buzz. By the next month, Carlos Alcaraz and Emma Raducanu were dubbed 'Raducaraz' by fans when they officially made their mixed doubles debut at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Emma Raducanu has consistently dismissed dating rumours involving Carlos Alcaraz, insisting they are "just good friends" with a strictly platonic relationship. During various interviews in late 2025, Emma laughed off the shipping buzz, stating she was happy that her partnership with Alcaraz provided light-hearted entertainment for fans. She revealed that Alcaraz initiated their professional partnership by inviting her to play mixed doubles at the 2025 US Open, an invitation she felt "honoured and excited" to accept. She expressed frustration with the media's questions about her dating status, calling it "terrible".
As of January 2026, Spanish tennis star, Carlos Alcaraz is reportedly single, although he has been constantly linked to numerous women. Despite ongoing rumours, Alcaraz has consistently stated in interviews in 2024 and 2025 that he wasn't seeing anyone. He shared that his demanding professional tennis career and travel schedule make maintaining a stable relationship difficult. Alcaraz has mentioned that his focus is primarily on his career and building his legacy, which requires constant travel and makes it challenging to find the right person to share his life with. During the 2026 Australian Open, when asked if his heart was taken, Alcaraz replied:
"No, I'm free. I'm free. I'm free."
In January 2026, South Korean DJ, Peggy Gou was spotted in Alcaraz's player's box during the Australian Open, sparking new romance speculation after the pair had dinner together in Seoul. When asked about her after a match, Alcaraz referred to her as a "really cool" friend. A few months ago, in September 2025, rumours about Alcaraz dating American Sports Illustrated model, Brooks Nader, circulated widely. The speculations surfaced after her sister, Grace Ann Nader, confirmed their involvement in an interview with E! News.
