We always joke about it. It’s like a Hollywood movie, it’s a crazy story. 
Garbine Muguruza said

Garbine Muguruza was having a stroll in Central Park during her non-practice hours. Arthur Borges, being a keen tennis fan, identified Muguruza. Muguruza, on her part, felt that he was very handsome. 

We met in the street in New York. It was love at first sight, was one of those boring days. I didn’t know what to do so I go for a walk on Central Park as always and just bumped on him. And it’s like, wait a minute, you are very handsome, who are you? And he’s a tennis fan, so he recognized me.
Garbine Muguruza said

Soon, they were on their first date the next day, and their love story blossomed.

'Hey, good luck'... That's it. That was enough. Next day, we were on our first date.
