In the men's doubles event at the US Open, Australian duo Jordan Thompson and Max Purcell have secured a spot in the championship match after a hard-fought victory over Americans Jackson Withrow and Nathaniel Lammons. The Australians clinched the win with a scoreline of 6-4, 7-6 (4) in the semifinals.
Thompson and Purcell, seeded seventh in the tournament, will now face the tenth-seeded German pair of Kevin Krawietz and Tim Puetz in the final showdown scheduled for Saturday. This marks their second opportunity to claim a Grand Slam title, having narrowly missed out on the Wimbledon championship earlier this year.
