New York: American twins Bob and Mike Bryan won the US Open men's doubles crown for the second time when they squeezed past Indian-Czech duo Leander Paes and Lukas Dlouhy 7-6 7-6 in the final on Friday.
The 30-year-old brothers clawed back from an early break in the opening set to snatch it in a tiebreaker 7-5.
The teams also traded breaks in the second set but again headed for another tiebreak, which the Bryans clinched 12-10 when Dlouhy smacked a backhand service return wide.
The second seeds won their sixth overall men's grand slam doubles title.
They have also triumphed at Wimbledon, Roland Garros and also own a pair of Australian Open trophies.
