Tennis: Bryans win record 14th doubles title

American brothers Bob and Mike Bryan won a record 14th Grand Slam men’s doubles title today when they defeated French pair, Michael Llodra and Nicolas Mahut.

The Bryans, who won their first title in Paris in 2003, triumphed 6-4, 4-6, 7-6 (7/4) in a final which ended with Mahut in floods of tears.

The top-seeded American brothers won their 13th title at the Australian Open in January to go level with the record of John Newcombe and Tony Roche.
