Mike Bryan and Jack Sock win Men's Doubles, 6-3. 6-1 against Łukasz Kubot and Marcelo Melo :cheer:

Their serve were only broken twice in the whole tournament :yikes:

Bryan and Sock become the first pair to win Wimbledon and U.S. Open in the same year since 2003, where legends, Jonas Bjorkman and Todd Woodbridge, achieved the same. 

 

Mike Bryan praise:

Firstly, Mike Bryan won his 6th US Open title in Men's Doubles, which equals the record for most Men's Doubles wins in US Open. He also becomes the most successful men's doubles player in Grand Slam history with 18 titles. Furthermore, he now also holds the record as the oldest Grand Slam winner in the Open Era (1968-) at the age of 40  :bowdown:

Osaka :hearts: Win the title :cheer: 

That would be so awesome, but I'm expecting 6-1, 6-0 or something :p

No way. Osaka likes big scene and big matches. She'll be nervous and all, but I expect at least two games in each set. :d Obviously, if she allows 13 break points to Serena, Cause she'll use at least 1/3 of them

Yeah but it's WTA and Serena Williams. 6-1, 6-0.

Serena would lose only if she makes too many unforced errors , i really wish her to win , Osaka still has plenty of time to win a GS and Serena's story will be really inspiring for many female athletes , at this age and after pregenancy, u win a GS just WOW

I agree it will be inspiring but I simply cannot say wow because I watched most of her matches and the level was mediocre with only flashes of good points. The opposition is simply weak. But nevertheless, it is still huge achievement :hatoff: 

 

I also believe she's gonna be major contender for the next year too, and would like actually to see Osaka winning. She'd repeat Serena's 1999 that way, with IW and USO titles :d (although Serena won another three too)

Yeah, Serena is not inspiring enough yet with her hundred million titles.

    • It is run by a different federation though 
    • from what I heard , Iran has registered to participate in Alpine, CC skiing, SkiMo, Skating (they didn't mention which discipline ) and ... (this one will be surprising ) ... Curling    Curling is not a sure thing yet, the NOC has to approve it. the team is very new. I mean very very new, only few months ago they gathered few people to start the sport  you can't lose 100-0 in Curling, right ?    anyway it will be first time ever Iran participating outside of FIS disciplines. ( I didn't count Ski orienteering in 2011 which was the same as CC)   nobody cares about winter sports here. therefore finishing last won't have consequences. they can afford sending very weak teams. (which is not the case for the main Asian Games)
    • World Junior Championships ( Dushanbe)   Day #4 Medallists   women's -78kg Gold:  Brenda Olaya Silver:  Mathilda Sophie Niemeyer Bronze:  Eva Ronja Buddenkotte &  Dandara Camilo   women's +78kg Gold:  Lee Hyeon Ji Silver:  Celia Cancan Bronze:  Chihiro Yamaguchi &  Safa Soliman   men's -100kg Gold:  Mukhammadsodik Sodikov Silver:  Nozomu Miki Bronze:  Azhdar Baghirov &  Fares Mekhoukh   men's +100kg Gold:  Denis Batchaev Silver:  Kanan Nasibov Bronze:  Saba Kardava &  Ibrahim Tataroglu
    • 100 days to go until the first multi-sports games of the 2025 
    • 11 medals out of 15 athletes. for whatever reason  we sent an incomplete team of 16 athletes (only 1 left for tomorrow) I wish I knew why  I can guess though   the result is indeed very good in such a competitive sport but lack of talent was never our problem in taekwondo. it was always there probably much more than any other country.    but the problem is the transition to the senior team. most of previous junior world champions never even made the senior team. (the new federation is doing better in this regard though)
    • Maybe my analogy was bad. I meant a team points competition based on individual placements in each event.
    • But why? Honestly it should be about athletes.
    • I actually feel like it has the potential to be good change. The new brand identities might open up more possibilities for merchandise. I also think the ISU could create a compelling team standings competition similar to the constructors cup in F1.   Plus, it might add a degree of “apolitical-ness” to the top level international short track, during a time where that’s been a hot topic in international sports (in general).    Maybe it won’t work at all, but I’m open to seeing where the ISU go with this.
    • GSOC HearingLife Tour Challenge Men’s Quarterfinals  Team Mouat v.  Team Craik   Team Schwaller v.  Team McEwen  Team Jacobs v.  Team Dunstone  Team Gushue v.  Team Whyte
    • @MHSN  so far is amazing! 11 medals (7 golds) out of 17 events...what a dominant performance! the future of Iranian taekwondo is bright
