We love these two brothers, they are funny entertaining and… the can play some tennis! The Bryans had another wonderful campaign to win their 12th career slam and tie Newcombe and Roche for the for the all-time record.
The match lasted 91 minutes and it was a sweet revenge of their loss in this year’s Australian Open final against the same couple.
“When you’re in the heat of the moment you don’t want to think about that stuff. We’re just trying to win the Grand Slam,” Mike said. “And now that we could chill a little bit, it’s fun to have it. We looked up to the Woodies, and to steal all their records is unbelievable, because we idolise those guys. They’re one of the reasons we play doubles. Just to be mentioned with those guys is pretty special. But to have a huge record like the Grand Slam record is really cool.”
“We weren’t thinking too much about revenge today,” said Bob Bryan. “We were just thinking about playing a good match and executing the scouting report our coach gave us and winning our home slam in front of all these fans that were pumping us up the whole day.”
The flying brothers won at least one slam each year since 2005.
Good and entertaining stuff!
