#62
Los Angeles ATP 250 Doubles Final
1 Bryan Bros d Eric Butorac & Jean-Julien Rojer - 67(6) 62 10-7
A big congrats to the Bryan Brothers. It's a big moment for them.
And very sweet to do it in their own back yard.
Two questions: Why couldn't Tennis Channel air this live?
And why not let them play after the singles so some people would be there.
History in the making at noon? Really?
To break the Woodies tie at 61 they had to come back from a set & a break.
They confessed afterward it was due to nerves.
The Bros won their 1st title in Memphis in 2001 over O'Brien & Stark.
Their 1st Slam came at Roland Garros in '03 over Haarhuis & Kafelnikov.
The Bros still have a ways to go to break the Slam team record.
And there are a few players that have more doubles titles individually...
But with at least 5 more years on tour - they'll take care of those in time.
Well done boys.
