Taylor Fritz opens up on pairing up with Rybakina in the US Open mixed doubles!

Meanwhile, it's worth noting to mention that Elena Rybakina and Taylor Fritz have recently won the Eisenhower Cup 2025 ahead of the Indian Wells. After this win, Fritz has expressed his desire to pair with the Kazakh star in the US Open mixed doubles thanks to her magnificent play in recent times.

When a reporter said, “Saw your win yesterday with Elena Rybakina. I guess it's a pairing now, US Open, you guys seem to feel really well together.” Taylor Fritz replied by saying, “Yeah, I thought she played great last night. She did everything that I would, I guess, everything I could ask of a mixed doubles partner. I think it's a good fit. Yeah, I asked her to play because I was looking for a US Open mixed partner, and she said that she wants to. She just has to check, I guess, with her team and everything. Hopefully it gets cleared (smiling).”
