Townsend and Siniakova win US Open doubles

Overview

Taylor Townsend has progressed through the US Open, first advancing to the fourth round in singles after defeating No. 15 seed Diana Shnaider with a score of 6-2, 6-7 (3), 6-3. This victory marked her first win over a top 20 player this year.

Subsequently, Townsend reached the women’s doubles final alongside partner Kateřina Siniaková. The pair secured their place in the championship match by defeating Diana Shnaider and Elise Mertens 6:0, 7:6.

In the final, the top-seeded duo defeated American players Ashlyn Krueger and Robin Montgomery with a score of 5-7, 6-0, 6-2 to win the US Open women’s doubles title. The victory completes a career doubles Grand Slam for both players, following their previous titles at Wimbledon (2024), the Australian Open (2025), and Roland Garros (2026). This win also marks the first Grand Slam championship for Townsend and Siniaková as a pair.

After dropping the first set due to several double faults by Siniaková, the pair dominated the match, winning 12 consecutive points in the second set to secure the win. The achievement is historic for Siniaková, who became the first player to complete a career Grand Slam in doubles with two different partners, having previously achieved the feat with Barbora Krejcikova. Additionally, the victory earned Siniaková her eleventh Grand Slam doubles title.
