Pickleball's New Power Duo? Bryan Brothers Set Eyes on New Court

Sources tell The Dink that tennis' all-time winning doubles team and global ambassadors, Bob and Mike Bryan, are in serious talks to sign a long-term deal with Major League Pickleball (MLP) and the Pro Pickleball Association Tour (PPA Tour).

The 45 year-old identical twin brothers, who are widely regarded as the most accomplished tennis doubles team of all time, announced their retirement from tennis in 2020, but not before racking up an insanely impressive resume:

• World #1 doubles team for 438 weeks

• 16 Grand Slam doubles titles

• 119 Tour Titles

• Davis Cup Champions (2007)

• Olympic Gold Medalists (2012)

• Voted Fan Favorite 14x

• 1,000+ career match wins

So after all that winning, why not just sit back and enjoy the spoils of a successful career?

Simple answer: they yearn for competition.
