Bob Bryan and Mike Bryan earned their first victory since May 2018, battling past Jean-Juilen Rojer and Horia Tecau 3-6, 7-6(2), 11-9 at the ASB Classic on Monday.
In just their second match together since Bob Bryan sustained a right hip injury in last year’s Mutua Madrid Open final, the American twins recovered from a set and 2-4 down to reach the quarter-finals after one hour and 32 minutes. Bryan and Bryan withstood 14 aces and won 78 per cent of first-serve points (32/41) to claim their first victory in three visits to the New Zealand capital.

 

The second seeds will meet Austin Krajicek and Artem Sitak for a place in the semi-finals. Krajicek and Auckland resident Sitak beat wild cards Ajeet Rai and George Stoupe 6-3, 6-2 in 54 minutes.
