Serena Williams, Carlos Alcaraz fall in US Open mixed doubles quarterfinal
Confirmed
Interviewed during a change of ends, Alcaraz said: "I'm playing next to the one and only Serena Williams, so what else can I do? “I don’t know how I landed on this court — to play Carlos and Serena is a great honour,” said Bencic.
The move proved a commercial success in its debut year, drawing sellout crowds and attracting many of the sport’s biggest singles names despite criticism from some doubles specialists, who argued it marginalised established pairings.
"I think everyone could see I was really nervous, I double-faulted on the first point," Alcaraz said after their opening win. “It’s always such an amazing place to be here,” said Williams.
I never expected to be back on this court," Williams said. “The chemistry is what put us through because we understand each other even by the look at each other’s reaction or kind of mood,” said Svitolina.
Discussing their dynamic, with a semi-final against Cobolli and Bencic to come, Frenchman Monfils said: "I'm a big fan of her game and mentality. I was tired before the match, I’m tired now,” said the Italian Cobolli.
“It’s great to be back in New York,” Federer said.
