Not long ago on Ashe, Britain’s Joe Salisbury won the men’s doubles title alongside American Rajeev Ram. The fourth-seeded pair rallied for a 3-6, 6-2, 6-2 over Jamie Murray and Brazil’s Bruno Suares in the first major doubles final of the professional era to feature British men on either side of the net.
The match was placed in the day session ahead of the first men’s singles semi-final between Auger-Aliassime and Medvedev, but tournament organisers permitted ticket-holders for the upper bowl to fill the courtside seats on Ashe, creating a livelier atmosphere than men’s doubles finals have seen in previous years.
