Reports indicate that world No. 1 Jannik Sinner and other top tennis players are considering a boycott of the U.S. Open mixed doubles event. The coverage notes that, as of the reporting, there is no confirmed information showing that these players would boycott the U.S. Open singles draws. One reason referenced for the discussion is the U.S. Open prize structure, which includes $5 million for singles winners. The articles frame the development as a consideration rather than an announced decision, and they do not provide details on whether a final agreement has been reached, which players would be involved, or what action would be taken if the boycott proceeds. Both outlets emphasize the lack of reporting about any singles-draw boycott, suggesting that any potential protest would be focused on mixed doubles rather than the main singles competition. Additional updates would be needed to determine whether any boycott ultimately affects the mixed doubles draw at this year’s tournament.
