- The U.S. Tennis Association designed the 16-team mixed doubles draw in its second year to feature shortened sets and multiple daily matches, aiming to attract top singles players before the main draw.
- Mensik sealed the championship with a final ace after building an 8-4 lead in the deciding 10-point tiebreak, earning Muchova and himself a $1 million prize to share.
- Before the final, Muchova and Mensik erased two match points in their semifinal to advance; the tournament marked the final Grand Slam appearance for Gael Monfils, who is retiring this season.
