At Wimbledon, Raducanu faced speculation regarding her relationship with Spanish superstar Carlos Alcaraz.
It had recently been announced that the pair would partner up for the US Open’s revamped mixed doubles event.
While Raducanu had also attended one of Alcaraz’s matches at Queen’s.
The 22-year-old insisted at the time that she and the two-time former Wimbledon champion were “just friends”.
With the US Open just around the corner, Raducanu discussed speculation surrounding her love life with The Guardian.
The British No1 said: “I guess I’m like, it comes with the territory, people being so curious.
“I think they’re more curious about this news than any tennis results and tennis news.
“But I just keep myself to myself, my private life to one side.

“It’s always funny when people try to find something out, but I try not to read into it so much.”
During Wimbledon, British star Cameron Norrie was bizarrely asked if he was dating Raducanu.
The baffled looking ace, who is in a long-term relationship with Louise Jacobi, replied: “Sorry?”
The reporter then responded: “I am trying to find out who is dating Emma Raducanu.
“It seems to be going around all the men’s singles… I was wondering if you’re dating her, please?”
A clearly uncomfortable Norrie then said: “I’m not, no. You can ask her. I don’t know.”
Addressing that weird exchange, Raducanu laughed before saying: “That was terrible, terrible.”
Cameron Norrie was understandably baffled by the question
The British No1 is ranked No39 in the world and was narrowly beaten by Aryna Sabalenka in round two of Cincinnatti earlier this week.
For the first time since her US Open triumph four years ago, Raducanu has managed to play a full calendar – crucially staying injury free.
With Mark Petchey having TV commitments, Raducanu has begun working with Rafael Nadal‘s former coach Francisco Roig.
On chatter surrounding the several coaches that she has worked with down the years, Raducanu said: “When you see things like: ‘Oh, Emma on her ninth coach’, I’m like: ‘Guys, come on.’ Certain ones don’t count.
“If you’ve had a trial, you don’t have to carry on after the trial. A few have been trials, a few have been other situations.
“I just try and take the high road. And try to do what the Royal Family would do.”
