One of the most recognized couples on the circuit, Alex de Miñaur and Katie Boulter, were set to make an appearance at one of the most high-profile tennis exhibition events, the mixed doubles of the US Open. The confirmation comes from the Australian, who is currently participating in the ATP 500 in Washington. Therefore, the couple, who got married less than a month ago, will fight for the title.

“Yes, we have signed up. We have signed up, but I don’t think we will qualify based on our combined ranking,” warns the number seven in the ATP ranking in statements collected by Tennis365, although no one doubts the couple’s presence. However, the inconsistent year for the Brit has seen her drop to 71st place in the WTA ranking. Both have an opportunity during this North American hard court swing to rise in the rankings and secure their presence at the well-publicized tournament.

This year’s lineup seems to be without Carlos Alcaraz and Emma Raducanu, but they have nothing to envy from the duo formed by Novak Djokovic and Aryna Sabalenka. Also confirmed are Alexander Zverev, who has partnered with Taylor Townsend, and Iga Swiatek, who will team up with Casper Ruud. Other confirmed pairs include Jack Draper and Jessica Pegula, Taylor Fritz and Elena Rybakina, or Mirra Andreeva and Andrey Rublev.

While the participation of Carlos Alcaraz, as of today, does not exist. Rumors from various U.S. media suggest that the Spaniard’s goal, in addition to recovering from his wrist injury, is to play alongside Serena Williams, which would be a historic and memorable partnership. This mixed doubles event at the US Open will take place the week before the start of the New York Grand Slam and will feature 16 teams.
