It was just chance," when Sinner and Alcaraz cross paths at the same restaurant in New York
Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz are inseparable. After four duels already played this year (Rome, Roland-Garros, Wimbledon, and Cincinnati), the two rivals are obviously hoping to meet again in the US Open final.
But it's also off the courts that they seem to be inseparable, as the Italian and the Spaniard were spotted Thursday evening at the same restaurant in New York. An unexpected encounter, as Alcaraz explained during his press conference yesterday:
"It's a coincidence. It's only a coincidence. I see a lot of people saying we would have eaten together, but it was just chance. But it wouldn't be strange if that weren't the case. We'll probably go out to dinner together at a restaurant one day.
