Joe Salisbury and Rajeev Ram roar back to take US Open men’s doubles title

• Britain's Salisbury and USA's Ram take title 3-6, 6-2, 6-2
• Pair beat Jamie Murray and Brazil's Bruno Soares in final

Joe Salisbury came from behind to see off his British rival Jamie Murray and capture the US Open men's doubles title on Friday beside his American partner, Rajeev Ram, before a buzzing crowd of several thousand at Arthur Ashe Stadium.

The fourth-seeded pair fought back for a 3-6, 6-2, 6-2 victory over Murray and his Brazilian partner, Bruno Soares, in the first major doubles final of the professional era to feature British men on both sides of the net. They shared $660,000 (476,000) in prize money in what was their second major title as a pair after last year's Australian Open title.
