Christian Harrison and Neal Skupski Win US Open for Their Second Grand Slam Men’s Doubles Title

The fifth seeds became just the third team in the Open era to win the title without dropping a set, saving a set point in the second set.

  • On Saturday, American Christian Harrison and British partner Neal Skupski won the U.S. Open men's doubles final, defeating Germans Kevin Krawietz and Tim Puetz 6-4, 7-6 at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
  • Skupski paired with Harrison after former partner Briton Joe Salisbury took a break from tennis due to anxiety, with their first Grand Slam together coming at the Australian Open in January.
  • Dominating at Flushing Meadows, the fifth seeds won without dropping a set, becoming just the third team since 1968 to achieve this feat alongside John McEnroe and Peter Fleming.
  • "I'm speechless," Harrison said of winning at home after eight surgeries from 2009-18, while Skupski stated, "I don't know what to say really, I'm still in shock."
  • For Skupski, the victory provides redemption after losing the 2025 U.S. Open and French Open finals, while Krawietz and Puetz have now fallen in the final twice in three years.
