Venus and Serena Williams are competing together as a doubles team at the 2026 US Open, their first joint appearance in the tournament in four years. The sisters are scheduled to face Hao-Ching Chan and Maya Joint on September 3, 2026, at 7 p.m. ET. The match will be broadcast on ESPN2.
This marks a reunion for the Williams sisters on the doubles court. Both have already participated separately in the 2026 tournament. Serena Williams advanced to the mixed doubles quarterfinals alongside Carlos Alcaraz, while Venus Williams was eliminated in the first round of singles play. Serena previously competed against Maya Joint in a singles match at Wimbledon in June, which resulted in a four-set loss for Serena.
