Britain's Neal Skupski and American Christian Harrison have claimed the US Open men's doubles title, marking their second Grand Slam victory together. The fifth seeds defeated sixth seeds Tim Puetz and Kevin Krawietz with a score of 6-4, 7-6 (8-6) in New York. Throughout the tournament, Skupski and Harrison did not drop a single set, showcasing their strong form and teamwork. This win follows their Australian Open victory in January, which was their first Grand Slam title as a pair. Skupski had previously reached the US Open men's doubles final in 2022 but lost to fellow Briton Joe Salisbury. He had also partnered with Dutchman Wesley Koolhof, but they were defeated in the 2022 final as well. Salisbury later took a break from tennis due to anxiety, which led Skupski to form a new partnership with Harrison. The duo received strong support from the Flushing Meadows crowd, particularly in favor of Harrison as a home favorite. The match featured dramatic moments, including a set point saved by Skupski and Harrison in the second set tie-break. Harrison delivered a crucial backhand winner to secure a break of serve in the first set, helping them take the opener. In the second set, the German pair had a chance to take the set after a return that clipped the net and caught Harrison off guard. However, Skupski and Harrison saved the set point and eventually closed out the match with a powerful smash from Skupski at the net. This victory marks Skupski's third doubles Grand Slam title, following his Wimbledon win in 2023 alongside Koolhof. He also holds two mixed doubles Grand Slam titles, having won Wimbledon in 2021 and 2022 with American Desirae Krawczyk. After the match, Skupski expressed his disbelief and joy, saying, "I don't know what to say really, I'm still in shock." He later added, "The speech gets a little bit easier once you've won," highlighting the emotional significance of the win.
