Iga Swiatek and Casper Ruud delivered an impressive performance in the mixed doubles tournament of the US Open 2025. The Polish and Norwegian players, teamed up for the first time, reached the final and came just a super tiebreak away from lifting the trophy. Casper tried to explain the success of this impromptu pairing and, along the way, received a phrase from his partner that has already gone viral. "We both played mixed doubles in the United Cup, so we had some experience. Not together, of course, but I think we had good chemistry: we are similar people, easy to deal with, Iga is very humble..."; that's when the Polish player cut the Norwegian's speech short. "We are Rafa's kids", she pointed out with a smile, referring to the idolatry they both share for Nadal. "Yes, some say that", Casper confirmed, being part of a hilarious moment.
