Harrison, Skupski win US Open men’s doubles title

Christian Harrison and Neal Skupski secured the US Open men's doubles title on Saturday, defeating Kevin Krawietz and Tim Puetz in straight sets 6-4, 7-6 (8/6). This victory marks their second major title of the year, joining the Australian Open crown they won earlier. Harrison and Skupski are only the third team in the Open era to win both the Australian and US Open titles in the same year, following Bob and Mike Bryan and Jamie Murray and Bruno Soares.

Skupski expressed his shock at achieving two titles at home, while Harrison described it as speechless. The duo's journey to the title was marked by their resilience, as they had lost twice and faced match points in the previous year's tournament.
