NEW YORK (AP) --- Belinda Bencic and Flavio Cobolli advanced to the U.S. Open
mixed doubles final Wednesday night by rallying to end the run of spouses Elina
Svitolina and Gael Monfils.
Bencic and Cobolli won 4-5 (7), 4-1 (10-5) and waited to return to the Arthur
Ashe Stadium court later against the winner of the second semifinal. Karolina
Muchova and Jakub Mensik faced Mirra Andreeva and Andrey Rublev in that one.
The winning team receives $1 million.
Bencic and Cobolli knocked Serena Williams and Carlos Alcaraz out of the
tournament Tuesday in the quarterfinals.
Then they dropped a set for the first time in the tournament, but began to
dominate midway through the second set, winning the final 11 points to force a
match tiebreaker.
