Love Triangle Shocker: Brooks Nader Linked to BOTH Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner During US Open

It could have been lifted straight from the script of Zendaya’s Hollywood hit Challengers. But this time, the drama wasn’t on the silver screen — it was playing out in real life under the bright lights of the US Open.

Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model and rising reality star Brooks Nader has been accused of dating both men’s finalists — Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner — at the same time during the 2025 tournament, according to explosive claims made to Page Six.

The revelation has thrown tennis fans, fashion followers, and celebrity watchers into a frenzy, with whispers of a love triangle swirling as fiercely as the New York winds that swept across Flushing Meadows.

“Wasn’t this the plot of Challengers?”

For anyone who watched Zendaya’s steamy tennis romance drama earlier this year, the parallels are uncanny. In the film, one woman finds herself entangled with two rival players — and now, a source insists, life is imitating art.

“Brooks was romantically playing doubles with both men’s finalists at the US Open,” the insider said, confirming the Sports Illustrated alum was spending time with both the Spaniard Alcaraz and the Italian Sinner, the No. 1 and 2 seeds in the world.

The gossip first surfaced late last month on Page Six Radio when Nader’s sisters, co-stars of her new Hulu reality show Love Thy Nader, joked that the 28-year-old model had “a little roster” of suitors from “every field and court.” Younger sister Grace Ann then teased that one of Brooks’ boyfriends had a name that “rhymes with winner” — a clear nod to Jannik Sinner.

Brooks herself appeared rattled by her siblings’ loose tongues, snapping: “Stop talking! I’m going to punch you when we get home already.”

Playing the Field

Nader’s alleged tennis romances were further fueled when she appeared courtside on August 31, cheering from a suite as Alcaraz took on France’s Arthur Rinderknech in the second round. The sighting set social media alight, with fans speculating that the Sports Illustrated stunner was backing more than just a friend.

Days later, Sinner himself was drawn into the conversation when late-night host Jimmy Kimmel pressed Brooks on whether she was romantically linked to the Italian.

“Is this, like, an interrogation? I’m so scared right now,” she laughed nervously, before coyly adding, “You’re close… you’re warm.”

By the time Alcaraz defeated Sinner in the finals on September 7 to secure his US Open crown, rumors of Brooks’ dual attachments were dominating gossip columns almost as much as the tennis itself.

A Tale of Two Champions

The timing could not have been more dramatic. On one side of the net, 22-year-old Alcaraz, already hailed as the sport’s next megastar. On the other, 24-year-old Sinner, his fiercest rival and the man most likely to block his path to dominance.

That these two men were allegedly linked to the same woman added an extra layer of intrigue to what was already billed as a rivalry for the ages.

“Call it the opposite of a double fault,” quipped one tennis insider. “It’s a love match — with complications.”

Brooks’ Romantic Resume

This isn’t the first time Brooks Nader has found her love life making headlines.

Earlier this year, she ended a steamy, on-again, off-again eight-month romance with Dancing With the Stars professional dancer Gleb Savchenko.

In 2024, she was linked to NFL legend Tom Brady, after the pair were spotted getting close at billionaire Michael Rubin’s infamous Fourth of July White Party.

She was previously married to real estate investor Billy Haire, but the couple split in 2024 and finalized their divorce last year.

For Brooks, juggling high-profile relationships has become almost as public as her modeling career — though rarely have the stakes been as high as with two of tennis’s brightest young stars.

Silence From the Stars

Representatives for Brooks, Alcaraz, and Sinner have all declined to comment on the love triangle claims, leaving fans and media alike to speculate wildly.

Meanwhile, Alcaraz was spotted celebrating his US Open triumph at private Manhattan hotspot Chez Margeaux, joined by family, friends, and — notably — several high-profile models. Whether Brooks was among them remains unclear.

Sinner, by contrast, returned quietly to Europe, preparing for the fall hard-court swing with little public comment.

Fans React

Unsurprisingly, tennis fans have been divided. Some accuse Brooks of “playing games” with the players’ hearts, while others dismiss the speculation as harmless gossip.

“Sounds like Challengers 2.0,” one fan tweeted.
“Honestly, who wouldn’t fall for Alcaraz and Sinner?” another joked.
Others were less charitable: “If true, this is messy. You can’t date both finalists in the same Slam. That’s wild.”

Meanwhile, gossip accounts on Instagram and TikTok have dissected every frame of Brooks’ US Open appearances, zooming in on her courtside smiles and late-night movements.

The Bigger Picture

For Alcaraz and Sinner, the rumors are an unwelcome distraction at a time when their professional rivalry is becoming one of the most captivating storylines in tennis.

“Both players are under enormous pressure,” said one commentator. “They’re fighting for Grand Slams, world No. 1 rankings, and the future of the sport. The last thing they need is a love triangle dominating the headlines. But that’s the reality of modern fame — sport and celebrity culture are more intertwined than ever.”

What Comes Next?

Whether Brooks Nader’s alleged romances with Alcaraz and Sinner will be confirmed, denied, or quietly swept under the rug remains to be seen. For now, the silence from all parties is deafening — and only adds to the intrigue.

What is certain is that Brooks’ star continues to rise. Between her modeling career, her new reality series, and now her rumored ties to two of tennis’s biggest names, she has cemented herself as a tabloid fixture.

As one insider put it bluntly: “Brooks has always played to win. This time, she might have taken on more than she bargained for.”

Conclusion

The 2025 US Open will be remembered not just for Alcaraz’s triumph and Sinner’s heartbreak, but for the off-court whispers that turned the tournament into a real-life soap opera.

And just like Challengers, the ending is still unwritten.
