Supporters of the new mixed double format say this is the ideal way to give mixed doubles, which is often overlooked in Flushing Meadows, its platform to gain its attention with coverage from ESPN and international transmission rights holders.
Critics say let’s call this what it is: it’s Usta’s last attempt to get into a new stream of revenue from her cash cow that is US Open. Critics say it is about selling more tickets (although Fan’s week is free, mixed doubles in the US Open will require paid paid participation) and part of USTA’s biggest goal to last open to a three-week tour with more paid sessions, more parking and concession sales to earn more money.
Usta says this is about “raising” mixed doubles and not for a money catch.
“US Open has long tried to find innovative and new ways to make the game more accessible and entertaining for our fans,” said Stacey Alaster, the director of the US Open Tournament, ahead of her US Open. “We believe that this mixed double championship in the US will make it exactly with the best men and women in tennis racing side by side in a fast, very competitive format.
“Being able to transfer this event to a place where it is able to get on the central stage was very important, and with our fully bought partners, more fans than ever before, both in the US and around the globe, will be able to enjoy this extraordinary competition.”
