Speculation about a potential romance between tennis stars Carlos Alcaraz and Emma Raducanu has arisen following their appearances at the Queens Club tournament.

It was noted that on both occasions Emma was present, their arrivals at Queens were mere minutes apart.

According to one source, “Emma and Carlos` friendship was the main topic of conversation at Queens. People believe there`s something happening between them because of the strong connection they share.”

“He was reportedly seen at her hotel last week,” the source added, “and on Thursday and Saturday, when Emma came to support him, her car arrived just minutes after Carlos arrived with his team.”

“Inside, they were observed laughing and joking together. They appeared very happy and comfortable in each other`s company.”

While they are confirmed to play together in the mixed doubles at the US Open in August, insiders suggest their partnership could extend into a romantic relationship.

A second source commented, “It wasn`t just the tennis crowd talking about it. Staff from the BBC and other media outlets were also gossiping. The only potential romance being discussed was between Emma and Carlos.”

Carlos Alcaraz, currently favored to win Wimbledon, recently spoke about the challenges of his love life last year. When asked about relationships, he stated, “I am single. I am looking for someone. It can be difficult as a tennis player to meet the right person because you are travelling all the time.”

Emma, ranked 38th globally, has also mentioned difficulties in finding lasting relationships, noting her parents discouraged boyfriends during her rise in the rankings.

She explained, “My parents were very much against [boyfriends] as it interfered with training. When I was younger, I wasn’t even allowed to hang out with my girl friends. A lot of the time I was very resentful, but it made me very confident and comfortable in my own company.”

Fans are also supportive of a potential pairing, flooding Emma`s recent Instagram posts with comments about Carlos. One fan quipped, “I’m here to read comments about Alcaraz.”

Another suggested, “Future Emma Alcaraz.”

Confirming their joint venture, the pair will team up for the US Open Mixed Doubles Championship in August.

Alcaraz commented on partnering with Emma, saying, “She`s going to be the boss. I`m super excited about it. I think it`s going to be great. It was an amazing idea for the tournament.”

“I`ve known Emma for a long time. I have a really good relationship with her. It`s going to be interesting. We are both going to enjoy it, for sure. I will try to use my doubles skills. We will try to win. But obviously, it`s going to be really fun.”
