New York, USA, 7 September 2023 | Leigh Rogers
Matt Ebden plays for a spot in the US Open 2023 men’s doubles final on day 11 at Flushing Meadows.
The 35-year-old Australian is enjoying a career-best run in New York, advancing to the semifinals alongside India’s Rohan Bopanna.
The sixth seeds have lost only a single set across their fourth matches so far and now face French duo Pierre-Hugues Herbert and Nicolas Mahut.
Although Herbert and Mahut have won five Grand Slam titles as a team, including the US Open crown in 2015, Ebden and Bopanna enter their semifinal showdown feeling confident.
“We’ll have a tough match against them, but with the way we’re playing, I definitely think we have a fantastic shot,” Bopanna said after their quarterfinal victory.
Heath Davidson is aiming to continue his winning run too, when he takes on three-time US Open champion David Wagner in the quad wheelchair singles quarterfinals.
Hayden Jones also features in the boys’ doubles quarterfinals, while Benjamin Wenzel makes his Grand Slam debut in the junior wheelchair event.
