The US Open has decided to completely reform mixed doubles at its tournament. It will now be played during qualifying week, starting on Tuesday.
There will be 16 teams, 8 of which will have wild-cards. This poses a problem for players wishing to compete in this event, who have to go through the singles qualifiers.

Kristina Mladenovic reacted: "Terribly shocking news. They're doing this just to make more money in the first week of the event.
They're making it look like an exhibition for anyone who wants to play. What about the players who have to play the qualifiers and will want to play the mixed doubles?"
