Losing a chance for a Grand Slam title is an important source of bottleneck for doubles players.
When Murray won the third consecutive US Open Mixed title with Bethany Mattech-Sands in 2019, the pair was celebrated by drinking champagne from their trophy at JFK Airport.
Many doubles players, including Murray, believe that the star -staded event may complement traditional mixed – but did not replace it.
“I am sure it would be an entertaining exhibition – but it would be the same. I don’t see it as winning a Grand Slam,” the UK’s Salisbury, who reached the Wimbledon Mixed Doubles final with Luisa Stephanie of Brazil last month, told the BBC Sport.
There is a lack of another grip consultation.
Salisbury and Stephanie’s understanding The US Open did not discuss plans with the players, which are represented by the Elected Association of Tennis Professionals (ATPs) and the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) councils.
Pagula, a prominent member of the WTA Council, agreed that the USTA went “evil”, saying: “If there was a response about the format, then then [reaction] Will be slightly different. ,
“I’m sure resistance,” Stephanie said.
“But our views did not matter anyway. The decision was taken and we have to live with it.”
In the already packed calendar, time is also difficult that many players are difficult before dashing many players competing in the warm-up tournament.
On Monday, five -time Grand Slam champion Alkaraz won the Cincinnati Open and said: “Scheduling is not best to play tomorrow, but the concept of tournament – I like it.
“Maybe I am going to sleep late, but I will try to put my best tennis to help Emma [Raducanu] Win. ,
As the start date has come close, the withdrawal has also become a concern with Paula Badosa and Tommy Paul, as well as taken out with sinful partner Emma Navarro.
Italian top seeds have been repaired with Katerina Siniakova, but the sinner is suspected to have his own participation after retiring with illness against Alkaraz from the Cincinnati Open final.
