Tennis superstars Emma Raducanu and Carlos Alcaraz have been the subject of dating rumors ahead of Wimbledon, and the Brit was asked to share her thoughts.

There are 23 British singles players in the main draw and 14 are in action on Monday. Raducanu, who has been suffering from a back injury, will start her campaign against Welsh wildcard Mimi Xu. No.4 seed Draper plays Argentine Sebastian Baez on Tuesday.

Emma Raducanu insisted her and Carlos Alcaraz are “just good friends” after the rumour mill began churning when they were announced as a pairing for the US Open’s new mixed doubles competition.
