  "account": "Djokovic and Sabalenka were eliminated from the US Open mixed doubles tournament on Tuesday by Czech duo Katerina Siniakova and Henry Patten. The Czechs, ranked No.1 in women's and men's doubles, overcame a losing start to claim a 1-4, 4-2 set victory before dominating a 10-2 tie-break in the decisive third set. Despite taking the first set, the Serbian and Belarusian stars were unable to mount a comeback as Siniakova and Patten's form improved. The pair will now face France's Gael Monfils and Elina Svitolina in the mixed doubles quarter-finals.",
