Yuki Bhambri Reaches First Grand Slam Doubles Quarterfinal US Open

Yuki Bhambri, partnering with New Zealand's Michael Venus, reached the quarterfinals of a Grand Slam for the first time in his career at the US Open men's doubles event by defeating the fourth-seeded German pair in straight sets. The 14th-seeded Indo-New Zealand duo will next face the 11th-seeded team of Nikola Mektic and Rajeev Ram. Bhambri, who has struggled with injuries in his singles career and never advanced beyond the first round at a Grand Slam, has found greater success in doubles, having reached the third rounds at the French Open and Wimbledon earlier this year. In the junior events, Indian player Maaya Rajeshwaran Revathi provided strong competition to second seed Hannah Klugman but ultimately lost in a three-set match in the girls' singles second round, and also exited the doubles event. Additionally, Indian boys' doubles players Hitesh Chauhan and Krish Tyagi were eliminated in their second-round matches, ending India's run in the junior doubles category. Despite these exits, Bhambri's milestone represents a significant achievement for Indian tennis at the 2025 US Open.
