The former tennis player was romantically linked to a well-known sports journalist with whom he covered the US Open
Agustina Larocca is a sports journalist and is part of ESPN, where she is especially linked to the world of tennis. During the last edition of the US Open, she shared coverage with Del Potro, who joined the team to analyze the matches from his experience as a former player.
So far, neither of them has publicly confirmed that there is a romance. According to the version broadcast on television, they are going through an initial stage and getting to know each other outside the professional sphere.
“I think they will deny it, they are getting to know each other,” clarified Etchegoyen. In that sense, those close to the protagonists have indicated that “time will tell if it’s a romance or not.”
What is certain is that it is not the first time the names of Del Potro and Larocca have appeared together. In 2018, rumors about a supposed closeness had already circulated, although at that time both dismissed the versions and the journalist was in a relationship.
Eight years later, the professional reunion in New York has reignited speculation.
Juan Martín del Potro might be in love again After several years of retiring from professional tennis, the player from Tandil is back in the spotlight, this time due to a matter related to his love life. According to revelations in Nuevo Día (Ciudad Magazine), he has started to get to know Agostina Larocca, a sports journalist from ESPN, in a different way.
The information was disclosed by Juan Etchegoyen, who stated that they got closer during the recent coverage of the US Open in New York, where Del Potro debuted in a new professional role as a commentator.
According to the journalist, the good chemistry they showed on camera continued once their work obligations were over. He even claimed that they had some meetings away from the broadcasts.
“I’ve heard about at least two meetings in the first week of September, in a restaurant, quite hidden,” Etchegoyen assured about the information he received from someone close to both of them who was part of the work team in the United States.
He also pointed out that during the broadcasts, a connection between them could already be perceived. “All that chemistry on air translated to those days at the US Open in the privacy of each other,” he stated.
