The US Open posted a hilarious joint interview featuring Carlos Alcaraz and Emma Raducanu that went viral on social media.

Emma Raducanu will team up with French Open champion Carlos Alcaraz in the mixed doubles at the US Open, with a prize of $1 million (£741,000) on offer for the winners. The new doubles team – who can expect to be given a portmanteau nickname of either “Alcaranu” or “Raducaraz” – are one of several eye-catching partnerships set to make their debuts in New York in August.

World No.2 Carlos Alcaraz – who won the first Major of his career in New York in 2022 – will join forces with Emma Raducanu, who became world famous thanks to her shocking feat at Flushing Meadows in 2021.
