The tennis superstars had a blast playing mixed doubles together at the US Open. Raducanu's reply to Alcaraz's Instagram post will have fans speculating.

The tennis world has gone into a frenzy after Carlos Alcaraz and Emma Raducanu teamed up at the US Open, as rumors continue to swirl that they may be the sport’s newest power couple.

Tennis fans got treated to pure magic at the US Open mixed doubles, but sometimes even wizardry can’t save you from a disappointing exit. Carlos Alcaraz pulled off what might be the shot of the tournament – maybe the year – leaving his partner Emma Raducanu looking like she’d just witnessed actual sorcery.

After a rough start to the year, Świątek (+310) is now basically neck and neck odds-wise with Sabalenka (+290), who is, again, the defending US Open champion. If anyone can unseat Sabalenka, it sure feels like Świątek is the most likely to do it.

F ormer US Open champion Mats Wilander predicts this year's winner at the final Major event of the season. The Swede sees Jannik Sinner as the main contender, placing the defending champion above Carlos Alcaraz.

Carlos Alcaraz won a tour-leading sixth title of the season in Cincinnati on Monday after Sinner retired from the final with illness while trailing 0-5 in the opening set and the result has turned up the heat in the rankings race ahead of the season's final major.

CNN World Sport’s Amanda Davies and tennis journalist and broadcaster Simon Cambers reflect on the Cincinnati Open champions and look ahead to the upcoming US Open.

There is no doubt that Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz are the two top favorites to win this edition of the US Open, which will take place in New York from August 24 to September 7. Both have won this tournament once and are perfectly aware of its importance for the race for the first position in the ATP rankings as well.
