Harrison and Skupski claim their second Grand Slam title together at the 2026 US Open
Christian Harrison and Neal Skupski have had a brilliant season, as evidenced by the fact that they finished with two Grand Slam titles to their name. The American and the Brit showed tremendous chemistry throughout the year and triumphed in the final of the US Open 2026 against the Germans Krawietz and Puetz with a score of 6-4 7-6 (6).
This result positions them as the second-best pair of the year so far, just behind Heliovaara and Patten, while also securing their spot in the ATP Finals. The excitement displayed by both in the press conference was evident.
This is what the champions of the US Open 2026 doubles said
Christian Harrison
"It shows what can happen when you persevere and work hard. We have a great team and, in doubles, obviously, it's all about playing together with your partner."
"We came to the US Open after two pretty tough losses. We had lost three matches in a row, but somehow we were able to regain our confidence for this tournament."
"I felt we were improving with every match. In the second or third round, I think we both played with the conviction that we could achieve it again."
Neal Skupski
"Right now, I'm virtually speechless. I had experienced this moment before, but with the runner-up trophy. Last year we even had match points in the final. This definitely feels much better."
"It has been a long process to get back to the point we needed to be at. We have worked hard. It has been a long summer and we didn’t achieve the results we wanted, but we suffered very tough losses in matches that could have gone either way."
"We have maintained our focus and confidence throughout this time. We arrived early for the tournament and worked a lot on the practice courts with our team. When you stay in the tournament, good things can happen. And, as long as you’re still in it, those things can always come."
