Real Life Challengers? Now It's Being Reported That Model Brooks Nader Not Only Dated Carlos Alcaraz During The US Open, But His Rival Jannik Sinner As Well

Who's ready for a really stupid Friday blog? Well, here goes nothing. A few days ago it was reported that my favorite tennis player and world no. 1 Carlos Alcaraz, fresh off winning the 2025 US Open, was dating a popular model named Brooks Nader.

The story caught my eye because it of course involved Carlos, but also because Brooks Nader was completely out of left field for him. What do you mean they're dating? Who the hell is she? I was skeptical of the story since it was broken by her very own sister, they've never been seen together, and it does come off like this woman likes to be in the headlines. 

Well, fast forward a few days and it's now being reported by Page Six that Brooks Nader was not only dating Carlos Alcaraz during the tournament, but his rival and fellow US Open finalist Jannik Sinner as well. I'm starting to think no one knows what the word dating means anymore. 

(Page Six) Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model Brooks Nader was romantically playing doubles with both men’s finalists at the 2025 US Open, a source tells us.

The reality honey deuce was dating both the tennis tournament’s No. 1 and 2 seeds — archrivals Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner — at the time of the tournament, a source tells Page Six.

So you mean to tell me the awful tennis movie Challengers came to life? 

Now I'm confused. Not only because this is a fucking insane thing to be happening, but also that Sinner already has a model girlfriend named Laila Hasanovic. People have noticed she's featured on his lock screen. 

This is Laila

Laila was even seen at Sinner's semifinal match at the Open. 

So the way I see it, this can only be a few things

1) Sinner and Alcaraz were in fact sleeping with Brooks Nader for the duration of the US Open. Possibly even sharing her? They do share all the grand slams these days. I guess you can never put weird shit like that past athletes? Real life Challengers like Page Six alludes to. 

2) Brooks Nader ran into them both at a restaurant one time. Decided to go to a few matches to see what it's all about and called it dating. 

3) Neither Carlos Alcaraz nor Jannik Sinner have any idea who Brooks Nader is. Her family just launched a reality TV show on Hulu. They wanted to grab some headlines to draw attention to that show and none of this is real. Both of these guys are home reading these stories absolutely confused at what's going on. 

Yeah I'm kinda leaning scenario 3. Let's get one thing straight, no one part of this story has any idea what the word 'dating' means. No one is dating here. Sleeping together? Maybe, but even that I'm skeptical on. Doesn't this just seem like forced publicity for the Hulu show? I'm not even knocking it, get your name out there however you want. It's all harmless anyways, maybe besides Jannik's actual girlfriend interrogating him '24' style over the next day. Thoughts and prayers to him.
