Preliminary entry list for reimagined event to be played before singles competition will feature most of the top men’s and women’s players
Imagine Carlos Alcaraz and Emma Raducanu competing together for a grand slam trophy. How about Madison Keys and Frances Tiafoe as a duo? Iga Swiatek alongside Casper Ruud? Or Naomi Osaka with Nick Kyrgios?
Those are among the high-wattage pairs on Tuesday’s preliminary entry list for the reimagined US Open mixed doubles tournament on August 19-20, before singles competition begins on August 24.
Ten of the top 11 women in the WTA singles rankings – Coco Gauff, who just won the French Open for her second grand slam title, is the only one missing – and 10 of the top 11 men on the ATP tour, including No 1 Jannik Sinner and 24-time major champion Novak Djokovic, have registered to compete for the US$1 million top prize that will be split by the winners, a US$800,000 increase over last year.
