The US Open started its campaign with star-studded events as top seeds Iga Swiatek and Carlos Alcaraz were involved in tennis soccer matches on Arthur Ashe Kids’ Day. Both players showed off their skills as the spectators enjoyed the show. The season’s final major is known for its entertainment off the court. Alcaraz and Swiatek were seen celebrating the win with a celebration that caught the eye of the fans.
Both players were playing against a YouTube sensation, Dude Perfect. Swiatek and Alcaraz celebrated with a chest bump which brought in questions about the relationships between the players.

One fan found the celebration hilarious and commented, “Two kids on kids day.” Although it was meant to be a light-hearted celebration, it became viral as fans liked the relationship between the players.

Alcaraz and Swiatek are the top seeds at the US Open. Swiatek is two years older than Alcaraz, but both share the same birthday month. Swiatek’s birthday is on the 31st of May, while Alcaraz was born on 5th. Alcaraz had said last year that he had texted Swiatek after the Miami Open but did not receive a reply. Although there have been no complications between them, both seemed excited to play soccer together at the US Open.
Are Carlos Alcaraz and Iga Swiatek dating someone?
Alcaraz has never spoken about his love life. The young Spaniard is reportedly dating a childhood friend, Maria Gonzalez Gimenez. The pair had met at the Murcia Club tennis academy, where Alcaraz used to train. Gimenez is an aspiring tennis player who has yet to play matches on the WTA circuit. She was born in Murcia and is three years older than Alcaraz. The rumors started when Alcaraz posted a story on Instagram of him kissing Gimenez on the cheeks.
Fans will be expecting Alcaraz to spill some beans on his private life. His chest bump with Swiatek made fans even more curious. On the other hand, Swiatek is believed to be single and has not mentioned anything about being in a relationship.
There have been no pictures or social media posts from the Polish player. Swiatek has kept her private life under lock. There is also no background on who she has dated. It would have been perfect for the tennis circuit if Alcaraz and Swiatek dated, as both are in the prime of their respective careers. The fun activities will end today as the main draw matches will start soon.
