Andrea Vavassori and Sara Errani won the U.S. Open's Mixed Doubles Championship Wednesday and earned a $1 million prize.
The much-talked-about pairing of Emma Raducanu and Carlos Alcaraz fell to an early exit in the US Open’s mixed doubles competition on Tuesday, losing their first-round match and failing to win a set.
But Świątek has surged late in the 2025 season. And building off her recent win on the grass courts at Wimbledon, she took home the Cincinnati Open 's Rookwood Cup after she beat Italian, Jasmine Paolini, 7-5, 6-4, on Aug. 18.
After a rough start to the year, Świątek (+310) is now basically neck and neck odds-wise with Sabalenka (+290), who is, again, the defending US Open champion. If anyone can unseat Sabalenka, it sure feels like Świątek is the most likely to do it.
Poland’s Iga Świątek and Norway’s Casper Ruud have booked their spot in the semifinals of the US Open mixed doubles competition.
She defeated Italian and WTA world No. 9 Jasmine Paolini in straight sets (7-5, 6-4) to emerge with her first title at Cincinnati. Świątek made it to the semifinals in the WTA 1000 tournament in each of the past two years, and was now able to get the job done just ahead of the U.S. Open.
Świątek is most prolific on her preferred surface of clay, and the French Open, where she is a three-time champion, is her favorite of the four grand slams. She has only lost twice at Roland ...
Świątek, one tournament removed from her stunning Wimbledon title, won the most important U.S. Open tuneup by beating Jasmine Paolini 7-5, 6-4 in the final of the Cincinnati Open. She is back to No. 2 in the rankings. She is within shouting distance of world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka.
