Peter Fleming and John McEnroe were the defending champions, but none competed this year. Fleming chose to compete on the singles tournament only, losing in the first round to Woody Hunt; McEnroe faced a two-month suspension after a series of code violations received at the US Open. Jim Grabb and Patrick McEnroe won the title by defeating Glenn Layendecker and Todd Witsken 6–2, 0–6, 6–4 in the final.
