Bob and Mike have a great rapport with their fans, often signing many more than the earmarked tennis balls for the crowd after a win – they sometimes bring their own bag of balls to sign and hand out.

Some of their greatest streaks have come after heart-breaking defeats. It was during the finals of 2014 at Wimbledon that they were upset by Vasek Pospisil and Jack Sock. They were in danger of not winning a major that year but turned their fortunes around by winning their 100th title at the US Open.

One of the qualities that distinguishes the Bryan Brothers from the rest of the field is their ability to come back from defeats. They have a lot of fan following around the world and being twins adds to the chemistry as well as their aura. Winning the fan favourite team award on ten different occasions just proves the fact that they are adored by fans everywhere.
