Sara Errani and Andrea Vavassori defeated Iga Swiatek and Casper Ruud to win the mixed doubles final at the 2025 US Open Tennis Championship at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Flushing, N.Y., on Wednesday. The duo won 6-3, 5-7, 10-6.
Italians Andrea Vavassori and Sara Errani won the U.S. Open's reimagined mixed doubles event Wednesday night, withholding WTA world No. 2 Iga Świątek and ATP world No. 12 Casper Ruud in a 10-point tiebreak for the third set and the match.
The event sparked controversy because it excluded traditional doubles teams - except for Errani and Vavassori - at the expense of big-name singles players. The star-studded field included world No. 2 Iga Swiatek and three-time Grand Slam singles finalist Casper Ruud, who lost in the final to the Italians, 6-3, 5-7, 10-6.
