We have been discussing for hours the piece of news about the upcoming US Open 2025 regarding mixed doubles, a discipline that has taken a 180º turn to make it more attractive, even if it meant excluding classic double players from the lineup. All eyes seem to be on that Alcaraz-Raducanu pair that has stirred up opinions on social media, but the explanation of how this duo was formed was still missing.

In an interview with Tennis Channel, Carlos Alcaraz himself had to address this issue, and the truth is that it's a pleasure to see how transparent he always is: "I'm excited to compete in this tournament, I was the one who asked Emma in the first place, I didn't know if she would want to play doubles with me, but she didn't hesitate too long. We have a good relationship, we have known each other for a long time, so it will be fun," revealed the Spaniard.

This news is an automatic translation. You can read the original news, ¿Alcaraz o Raducanu? ¿Quién le pidió jugar a quién?
