Inside
Tennis, January 2002, Matthew Cronin, "Pro Players of
the Year; From Bryan Boyz 2 Men"
"It seems like just a few years ago that Camarillo twins Bob
and Mike Bryan were sitting in the stands enthusiastically waving
flags at a La Costa Davis cup tie and having their pictures snapped
because of their unique likeness, garb and boundless energy."
"After winning four titles in 2001, reaching the Wimbledon semis
and finishing the year ranked No.7, the Bryans officially left their
cute boyhood games at home. They firmly established themselves as
the U.S.s second most formidable team and sent a message that
they will be competing for Slam titles and a spot on the Davis Cup
team for years to come."
"Were really happy with our year said Bob,
the lefty and ad court half of the 23-year-old Bash Brothers. Weve
become a lot more consistent and sure of ourselves."
"It was a year of transition for the brothers, who stopped traveling
full-time with their personable father, Wayne, and hired a new coach,
Craig Edwards."
" . . . . . The twins powdered up their games in 01, as
the pair started to hit with a lot more stick on the ball. Bobs
return improved and Mikes serve grew more consistent." |
