1997 US Open – Women's doubles


Lindsay Davenport and Jana Novotná defeated the defending champions Gigi Fernández and Natasha Zvereva in the final, 6–3, 6–4 to win the women's doubles tennis title at the 1997 US Open. It was the 17th doubles title and second major title for Davenport, and the 67th title and ninth major title for Novotná.
This was the first major in which sisters Venus and Serena Williams competed, losing in the first round.
Zvereva made the finals of all 4 grand slam tournaments for the second time in her career, but fell short of winning the Calendar Grand Slam with this loss. This would also be Fernández’s last women’s doubles grand slam tournament, ending a 6-year streak of making the quarterfinals or better in 24 consecutive slams and winning 14 of her total 17 women’s double grand slam titles.
