Daniil Medvedev withdraws from US Open mixed doubles for Winston-Salem
Daniil Medvedev has opted out of the US Open mixed doubles event to prioritize singles preparation at the ATP 250 Winston-Salem Open. The former world No. 1, who was originally scheduled to play alongside Diana Shnaider, received a wildcard for the Winston-Salem tournament to build momentum ahead of the final Grand Slam of the season.
Medvedev’s decision is driven by a revamped US Open schedule where mixed doubles competition now takes place during the week preceding the singles main draw. This scheduling overlap has caused other high-profile withdrawals, including Naomi Osaka, who pulled out of a planned partnership with Kei Nishikori for similar reasons.
By choosing Winston-Salem, Medvedev prioritizes match rhythm over the significant prize money associated with the US Open mixed doubles, where winners can earn approximately one million dollars. The Winston-Salem winner receives 112,420 dollars and 250 ATP ranking points. The withdrawal of Medvedev and Shnaider opens opportunities for alternates such as Jakub Mensik and Karolina Muchova to enter the US Open mixed doubles draw.
