Jamie Murray has won his second straight US Open mixed doubles title, teaming with Bethanie Mattek-Sands to beat Alicja Rosolska and Nikola Mektic 2-6 6-3 11-9.
The Scot won last year with Martin Hingis, who was in the box on Saturday to cheer the doubles team at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Murray has become the first man to win consecutive US Open mixed doubles titles since Bob Bryan in 2003 and 2004.
The 32-year-old Murray, brother of former Wimbledon and US Open champion Andy Murray, played with Mattek-Sands for the first time in the tournament.
Mattek-Sands has also won mixed doubles grand slam titles at the Australian Open and the French Open. Murray had three other grand slam mixed doubles titles.
Rosolska and Mektic also played together for the first time in what was the first all-unseeded doubles final at the U.S. Open since 2009.
Murray and Mattek-Sands received $US155,000 ($A218,039) for winning the championship.
