Alcaraz and Raducanu are one of the couples who have raised more expectation and take care of their relationship. The tennis player, who went to Queen's to witness the semifinal of Carlitos and Bautista, made Carlitos wait before confirming that they enrolled as a couple. «I had to ask my team if they wanted me to play the doubles. When he asked me, I was going to say yes, but simply I had to go through the formality of asking my coachI was not going to make the decision like this, simply, ”he explained in Express.
Alcaraz and Raducanu's relationship was reinforced precisely in the US Open, where they will play together this season. «LI have known for some years. In Wimbledon 2021 it was when I began to meet him and then in the US Open 2021 I remember that he always played a day before me. I saw how I won and that gave me motivation for me to do the same. I remember that he beat Tsitsipas in Third Round and was a great triumph, his moment of hatching in a great tournament. It was fantastic, in a way, to live that tournament together. We both kept in touch all the time. It was pretty.
Since then, both have watered their relationship. «We still have a good relationship. It is clear that he has surpassed me, but it's great to see that is still there. I think we all value those links that we create when we were younger, because when you become better or more successful, you realize that you want to talk to the people you know since childhood, you feel that there is a genuine and real connection there. The friends you know for a long time mean more for you, ”he settled.
