Fresh off his US Open victory, Spanish tennis prodigy Carlos Alcaraz is reportedly dating American model Brooks Nader. The romance, long subjected to social media speculation, was recently confirmed – if tentatively – by Nader’s sister at a New York Fashion Week event, raising interest well beyond the courts.
The connection between the two first began circulating after Brooks Nader was photographed at several high-profile tennis events, including the U.S. Open, initially sparking rumors about a link to Jannik Sinner. However, in comments to E! News during the Raising Cane’s NYFW show on September 10, Brooks’s younger sister Grace Ann addressed the speculation.
“The rumors are true,” Grace Ann said. “Dating is such a loose term. But I do know he’s the man of the hour.”
She also revealed that Alcaraz, 22, six-time Grand Slam winner, has already met Brooks’s sisters Mary Holland, 26, and Sarah Jane, 23. Grace Ann, however, shared she has not yet had the pleasure.
“I’m dying to,” she added. “Such a cutie.”
Brooks Nader, 28, is a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model and reality TV personality, known for recent appearances on “Dancing with the Stars” and reality series “Love Thy Nader”. She finalized a divorce earlier this year from Billy Haire and has been in the headlines lately after playful denials and coy responses about her dating life during late-August interviews. Meanwhile, Alcaraz remains one of the brightest stars in men’s tennis: multiple Grand Slam wins, a return to World No. 1, and widely commended on-court performance.
While neither Alcaraz nor Nader has publicly made a joint statement to definitively label their relationship, Nader’s sister’s remarks strongly suggest a new romance is underway – albeit in its early stages.
