Parrott Takes Mixed Doubles Title

Travis Parrott won the mixed doubles title with Carly Gulickson. The American duo upset the second-seeds Leander Paes and Cara Black 6-2 6-4.

This is Parrott’s first title of the year and fourth career title (others w/Polasek, del Potro and Gambil). More importantly, it is his first career grand slam. The title is a nice consolation, as he and his usual partner, Filip Polasek lost in the first round to Yen-Hsun Lu and Dudi Sela in men’s doubles.
