TENNIS TWINS
Americans Bob and Mike Bryan are the most successful tennis doubles team in history.
The guys have won multiple Olympic medals, including Gold in 2012 and have won
more games, matches, tournaments and grand slams than any other team. They have
been the number one team eight times and have won at least five titles per year for ten
years. A very impressive record! They are also identical twin brothers, although Bob is
about three centimeters taller. So, has being a twin helped them be so successful?
Well, their communication on the tennis court is amazing and this goes back to they
shared childhood.
They finish each other's sentences and know what the other is thinking. When they
were around six their parents took them to therapy because they were speaking an
"alien twin language"! They are so close that they don't need to speak to communicate.
It just comes naturally, and this makes very dangerous to their opponents. Their
parents thought it was important that their children had fun playing tennis and they didn't
want the boys to compete with each other. If they played each other in singles
competitions, they would share victories. In one competition Bob would win, and Mike
would win in the next. Of course, being able to practice with an expert player every day
has helped them become so good at tennis.
But tennis isn't the only thing they are good at. They have played music since they were
young and they recorded their first album in 2004. One thing they didn't have when they
were young was TV. Their dad took it out of the house so they had lots of time to
practice music and tennis. And this could be the reason why they are so successful
today!
The guys do a lot of charity work too. Their organization, Bryan Bros. Foundation, helps
children around the world to have a better quality of life.
