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

Carlos Alcaraz has revealed that he will be ‘under pressure’ if he wins the coin toss when he takes to the court to play mixed doubles with Emma Raducanu at the US Open. The duo announced that they would be joining forces recently, and their partnership is expected to be a major talking point at the competition.

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.
