The 2025 US Open is the 145th edition of tennis' US Open, and the fourth and final Grand Slam event of the year. It is being held on outdoor hard courts at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York City. Jannik Sinner and Aryna Sabalenka are the men's and women's singles defending champions, respectively. This is the final edition of the tournament with Stacey Allaster as its director.[1]
Tournament
[edit]The tournament is run by the International Tennis Federation (ITF), and is a part of the 2025 ATP Tour and the 2025 WTA Tour calendars under the Grand Slam category. The tournament is played on hard courts and takes place over a series of 17 courts with Laykold surface, including the three existing main showcourts – Arthur Ashe Stadium, Louis Armstrong Stadium and Grandstand.[2]
The US Open main draw expanded to 15 competition days in 2025, and featured the first weekend start to the main draw in the Open Era alongside the Australian Open and the French Open tennis championships, with competitions beginning on Tuesday, August 19, and continuing until Sunday, September 7.[3]
The wheelchair events are being held for the first time since 2023, as they were not held in 2024 due to scheduling conflicts with the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games.[4]
New mixed doubles format
[edit]The 2025 edition of the US Open was the first with a new format of mixed doubles competition, that was moved to the first week of the US Open–Fan Week and played from Tuesday, August 19 to Wednesday, August 20 with a reward of $1 million winner’s prize.
The two days of competition were held in the Arthur Ashe Stadium and the Louis Armstrong Stadium, featuring 16 teams, with eight teams earning direct entry based on their combined singles ranking and eight wild-card entries. The matches were played in best-of-three-sets with short sets to four games, no-ad scoring, tiebreakers at four-all, and a 10-point match tiebreak in lieu of a third set. The final was a best-of-three set match to six games, featuring no-ad scoring, with tiebreakers at six-all with a 10-point match tiebreaker in lieu of a third set.[5]
The changes generated significantly more attention for mixed doubles than in past years, with large crowds attending both days of play in Arthur Ashe and Louis Armstrong Stadiums. Many fans and players praised the new approach for raising the profile of the discipline and creating a lively atmosphere, while others criticized it for limiting opportunities for doubles specialists and moving away from established traditions. Despite the mixed reception, the event was generally regarded as a success, and it is expected that the format will return in future editions.[6]
Defending champions and doubles specialists Sara Errani and Andrea Vavassori retained the title, defeating Iga Świątek and Casper Ruud in the final.
