塞雷娜·威廉姆斯与维纳斯·威廉姆斯将于周五晚间首次在阔别四年后，于纽约美网公开赛搭档出战。
威廉姆斯姐妹将在女双首轮对阵玛雅·乔伊特与詹皓晴的组合。今年夏天，乔伊特曾在温网击败过塞雷娜。
现年44岁的塞雷娜在退役四年后于今年重返网坛，却以6-3、6-7(6)、6-3的比分不敌来自澳大利亚的20岁选手乔伊特。她在这场比赛中膝盖受伤，不得不放弃与46岁的维纳斯原定在全英俱乐部的双打赛事。
但她们已确定将出战美网公开赛。威廉姆斯姐妹曾于1999年和2009年在此夺冠，九次参赛总战绩为27胜7负。她们上一次搭档出战该赛事是在2022年，当时首轮落败，那场比赛原本被认为是塞雷娜在法拉盛公园的最后一场赛事。
乔伊特与詹皓晴是14号种子组合。
九届大满贯双打冠军贝瑟妮·马泰克-桑兹认为，她们面对威廉姆斯姐妹时会有些怯场。
“我的意思是，在纽约主场观众的见证下，与威廉姆斯姐妹进行夜场比赛，这场面会很棘手，”马泰克-桑兹告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻。
周一清晨，维纳斯结束了她在法拉盛公园的第26次单打征程。她在午夜才登场作战，最终直落两盘不敌美国本土外卡选手索菲亚·肯宁。
她以6-2、7-6(6)的比分落败，这可能是她职业生涯最后一场大满贯单打赛事，若不算她辉煌整个职业生涯的话。这是她自2025年7月在华盛顿拿下最后一场胜利以来，连续第15次单打失利。
自2019年首轮取胜后，维纳斯已经在美网公开赛上遭遇六连败。在双打比赛前夕，维纳斯不愿过多思考自己的网球未来。
“我认为我不必去想这些，”赛后她对一小群记者说道。“我的心思完全集中在这件事上：如何从这场彻底疯狂的夜晚中恢复过来，为下一场比赛做好准备。”
上周，塞雷娜与卡洛斯·阿尔卡拉斯搭档出战混双，在首秀获胜后，于四分之一决赛中以5-4(4)、4-1的比分不敌贝琳达·本西奇与弗拉维奥·科博利组合，止步八强。

Serena and Venus Williams returning to U.S. Open women’s doubles tournament together tonight

Serena and Venus Williams will play together at the U.S. Open in New York for the first time in four years on Friday night.
The Williams sisters will face the team of Maya Joint, who beat Serena Williams at Wimbledon this summer, and Hao-Ching Chan in the first round of the women’s doubles tournament.
The 44-year-old Serena returned to the sport this year after four years out of action and lost to Joint, a 20-year-old from Australia, 6-3, 6-7 (6), 6-3. She injured her knee in the match and had to pull out of her planned doubles match at the All England Club with Venus, 46.
But they are set to compete at the U.S. Open, where the Williams sisters won the title in 1999 and 2009 and are 27-7 in their nine appearances. They last played together at the tournament in 2022, losing in the first round in what was expected to be Serena’s final match in Flushing Meadows.

Joint and Chan are the No. 14-seeded team.
Nine-time Grand Slam doubles champion Bethanie Mattek-Sands thinks they’ll be a little intimidated by the Williams sisters.
“I mean, the night match against the Williams sisters with the New York crowd, it’s going to be tough,” Mattek-Sands told CBS News.
Early Monday morning, Venus bowed out of her 26th singles appearance at Flushing Meadows, falling in straight sets to fellow American wild card Sofia Kenin after not getting on the court until midnight.
She lost 6-2, 7-6 (6) in what could be her final singles match at a Grand Slam, if not her illustrious career. It was her 15th consecutive singles defeat dating back to her last victory in Washington in July 2025.
Venus has now lost six in a row at the U.S. Open since winning in the first round in 2019. Ahead of the doubles match, Venus was not ready to contemplate her future in tennis.
“I don’t think I should have to,” she told a small group of reporters after the match. “My mind is fully focused on that: how I recover from this completely insane evening and get ready for the next one.”
Last week, Serena and Carlos Alcaraz were knocked out in the mixed doubles quarterfinals by Belinda Bencic and Flavio Cobolli, 5-4 (4), 4-1 after winning their debut playing together.
