Bob and Mike Bryan made their Grand Slam debut at the 1999 French Open, where they lost to reigning Australian Open champs Jonas Bjorkman and Patrick Rafter in the second round.
Over the years, the twins have found the majors much to their liking as they set the record for most titles won among male teams with 16.
However, they won’t get the chance to add to their haul at this year’s French Open: Bob Bryan is still in recovery mode from a hip injury he suffered in the final of the Madrid Open, bringing their streak of consecutive Grand Slams played to an end at 76.
It’s a rough break as the 40-year-olds were on fire. After a mediocre campaign in 2017 by their standards, the Bryans got off to a solid start this year, reaching the semifinals at the Australian Open.
