Wild card entries have also been confirmed with Jack Draper and Venus Williams in this year’s US Open mixed doubles event.
To attract the biggest names of the game, the USTA increased the amount of money, changed the mixed doubles with singles and other doubles events a week before the singles competition began and reduced the format to four game sets.
The mixed doubles championship will take place on August 19 and 20, where the amount of $ 1 million (50 750,000) prizes for the winners is at stake.

Talk Sky Sports TennisFormer Andy Murray’s coach Mails McClgan said: “I think it’s all interesting. I go back to Shelton and Towns. She’s not yet in doubles. This is not a team that you feel good about breaking, will it be difficult to stop.
“Sinner and alkaloz always have quality, which do not play too much doubles, but they can return, return a lot of return, target their places at the service.
“Jack Draper will come a bit less cooked because I don’t think he will play a competitive tennis before.”
Naomi Koda said: “You do not get a lot of players who play doubles so it is a bit unknown. With Rodokovano Rabakina reached the doubles semi -finals in Washington, so look at Radokano and Alakaraz.
“I am really angry with the two Britishs. Along with Draper, with Badosa, unless it is fit and healthy. I can’t wait to see Radokano and Alakaraz, but maybe my strongest pair is Banksk and Zurio.”
