Ultimately, they emerged victorious with a scoreline of 7-6 (10) 6-1, advancing to the semifinal stage of this prestigious hard court major.

This achievement marks the second consecutive time this year that Bopanna and Ebden have reached the semifinals of a Grand Slam event, following their memorable journey at Wimbledon, where they faced a formidable challenge against Wesley Koolhof and Neal Skupski.
