As the excitement of the Australian Open captures the hearts of fans across Australia, it’s the exuberant expressions of admiration from the stands that truly highlight the tournament’s electric atmosphere. During a recent match featuring tennis sensation Carlos Alcaraz on January 23, the 22-year-old star was the target of not one, but three marriage proposals from enthusiastic fans, showcasing just how much he has already captivated the audience.
As Alcaraz walked back to his position, a fan shouted, “Carlos, marry my daughter!” This was followed by another voice calling out, “Marry my sister-in-law!” The playful calls led to laughter among the crowd, and when a third fan proclaimed, “Marry me!” the young player couldn’t help but smile, prompting cheers from the thousands in attendance.
While Alcaraz continues to shine on the court, speculation surrounds his romantic life. He was first linked to Maria González Giménez, his childhood friend from El Palmar, Murcia, in 2022. Giménez, who plays tennis for a Spanish club, kept a low profile during their time together, and Alcaraz even shared a heartfelt Instagram post expressing that he missed her. However, by February 2023, Alcaraz indicated during a Vogue interview that he had been single for about 18 months, citing the challenges of sustaining relationships while constantly traveling.
Rumors swirled again when Alcaraz showed undeniable chemistry with fellow tennis player Emma Raducanu during their mixed doubles match at the 2025 US Open. Despite the undeniable connection observed by fans, both players have clarified that their relationship remains strictly platonic. When asked about their chemistry, Raducanu expressed her understanding of the fan fascination but confirmed that they are just friends.
In more recent developments, Alcaraz has been linked to 28-year-old swimsuit model Brooks Nader. The relationship was indirectly confirmed by Nader’s sister, Grace Ann Nader, who affirmed that the rumors are true. During an appearance on “Watch What Happens Live,” Nader playfully noted that “dating is such a loose term,” further inflaming speculation about her connection with Alcaraz.
As it stands, Alcaraz has chosen not to comment on the status of his relationship with Nader, maintaining an air of mystery around his personal life. While he has stated he is seeking companionship, the demands of his professional tennis career may keep the budding romance at bay for now.
The joy and excitement tennis sparks in fans not only during the games but also in the thrilling narratives surrounding the stars’ personal lives contribute to the magnetism of the Australian Open. With talent and charisma, Alcaraz remains a figure to watch both on and off the court.
