The 2025 US Open will be the 145th edition of tennis' US Open and the fourth and final Grand Slam event of the year. It will be held on outdoor hard courts at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York City. Jannik Sinner and Aryna Sabalenka are the men's and women's singles defending champions, respectively. This will be the final edition of the tournament with Stacey Allaster as its director.[1]

Tournament

The tournament will be an event run by the International Tennis Federation (ITF) and be a part of the 2025 ATP Tour and the 2025 WTA Tour calendars under the Grand Slam category. The tournament will be played on hard courts and take place over a series of 17 courts with Laykold surface, including the three existing main showcourts – Arthur Ashe Stadium, Louis Armstrong Stadium and Grandstand.[2]

The US Open main draw will expand to 15 competition days in 2025, and will feature the first weekend start to the main draw in the Open Era alongside the Australian Open and the French Open tennis championships, with competitions beginning on Tuesday, August 19, to Sunday, September 7.[3]

The wheelchair professional events will be held for the first time since 2023, as they were not held in 2024 due to scheduling conflicts with the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games.[4]

New mixed doubles format

The 2025 edition of the US Open will be the first with a new format of mixed doubles competition, that will be moved to the first week of the US Open–Fan Week and played from Tuesday, August 19 to Wednesday, August 20 with a reward of $1 million winner’s prize.

The two days of competition will be held in the Arthur Ashe Stadium and the Louis Armstrong Stadium, featuring 16 teams, with eight teams earning direct entry based on their combined singles ranking and eight wild-card entries. The matches will be played in best-of-three-sets with short sets to four games, no-ad scoring, tiebreakers at four-all, and a 10-point match tiebreak in lieu of a third set. The final will be a best-of-three set match to six games, featuring no-ad scoring, with tiebreakers at six-all with a 10-point match tiebreaker in lieu of a third set.[5]

This change was criticized by players and fans before the start of the tournament.[6][7][8][9]
