TENNIS

Defending champs Sara Errani and Andrea Vavassori fended off their more well-known challengers and won the new version of the US Open mixed doubles. Eranni and Vavassori defeated Iga Swiatek and Casper Ruud in an entertaining final, using their experience in doubles and well-practiced tactics to take down their higher-powered but slightly less comfortable opponents. After much anticipation and hand-wringing about the new format… I’d say it was a pretty solid success.
