Serena Williams and Carlos Alcaraz, a dynamic duo in tennis, entered the US Open mixed doubles tournament with confidence. Despite a strong start, the team fell short in the quarter-finals, losing to Swiss-British pair Belinda Bencic and Flavio Cobolli of Italy. The Swiss and Italian duo claimed a 5-4, 4-1 victory over the American and Spanish star, ending their run in the unorthodox competition.
