The latest from the final at Flushing MeadowsAlcaraz and Sinner in world of their own | Email KatyAlready today, Joe Salisbury and Neal Skupski have fallen agonisingly short in their attempt to become the first all-British pair since 1903 to win the men’s doubles title. They had three match points in the third set, before being edged out 3-6, 7-6, 7-5 by Spain’s Marcel Granollers and Argentina’s Horacio Zeballos, who also won the French Open title together this year.
