One of the most prominent events held at Flushing Meadows in Queens, New York City, is the US Open. It is among the oldest tennis tournaments that has not been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, World Wars I and II, or both. The competition includes events for senior, junior, and wheelchair players and is divided into five categories: men's and women's singles, men's and women's doubles, and mixed doubles.
With thirteen titles, Margaret Osborne duPont holds the record for most women's doubles US Open victories. With nine career US Open women's doubles titles, Martina Navratilova owns the record. The reigning champions, Lyudmyla Kichenok and Jelena Ostapenko, won the women's doubles division at the 2024 US Open.
