  • They edged Joe Salisbury and Neal Skupski 3-6, 7-6 (4), 7-5 after denying three match points at 4-5 in the third set.
  • They captured a second Grand Slam title of 2025 after defeating the same British pair in the Roland Garros final.
  • The victory lifts them to second in the PIF ATP Live Doubles Teams Rankings, 830 points behind leaders Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool.
  • Marcel Granollers struck a forehand return winner to break Neal Skupski late in the decider, then served out the championship.
  • Salisbury and Skupski, in their first full season together, reached multiple finals but remain without a title and missed a chance to become the first all‑British US Open men’s doubles champions since 1903.
