The second-seeded team has remained unbeaten so far in the competition. They would like to keep the streak going as they prepare to face the third seeds, Marcelo Arevalo and Jean-Julien Rojer up next.

In the first encounter, Salisbury and Ram defeated the team of Marcelo Granollers and Horacio Zeballos in three sets 6-3, 6-7 (8-10), 10-8. The 2022 US Open champions produced an even better effort to stop the big-serving team of Lloyd Glasspool and Harri Heliovaara in their second encounter. The match ended 7-5, 6-4 in favor of Ram and Salisbury.
