The Bryan Brothers: The World's #1 Doubles Team
The Williams sisters may be the most famous pair of siblings on today's tennis circuit but the Bryan twins have won the most games, matches, tournaments and grand slams than anyone else in history. They've also won multiple Olympic medals, including the 2012 Gold medal. They are currently the World No. 1 doubles players and have been for longer than anyone in doubles history. They've been the ATP No 1 doubles team eight times and have a record 83 tour titles; including the French Open, US Open, Australian Open and Wimbledon.
Some people believe their "twin power" helps them beat down their opponents The Bryans are mirror twins, one is right handed and the other left handed so they mirror each other's movements. Only 1% of live births result in monozygotic twins and only 25% of those twins are mirror twins. A 60 minute special on the Bryan brothers demonstrated how their mirror-ness improved their court coverage.
In 2012, they were named The Tennis News Persons of the Year.
Outside of tennis, they run the Bryan Bros Foundation which identifies and supports charities and causes that help at-risk youth survive and thrive. They play music (they've played onstage with the Counting Crows) and have even modeled for Vogue magazine. They've also developed The Tennis App. Their free app has rankings, scores, news and super-slow motion shot instruction of the Bryans. The smart zoom features lets users slow down and zoom in on each stroke.
The only question left is what can't the Bryan brothers do?
