At US Open 2012, Flushing Meadows, USA

Men's Doubles Final
(5) Radek Stepanek (CZE)/ Leander Paes (IND) l (2) Bob Bryan (USA)/ Mike Bryan(USA) 36 46

Bryans were serving well from the beginning and holding their serves comfortably ... Other hand they managed to put pressure on Radek and Lee's service games ... In 2nd game Radek saved 4 break points and then in 4th game Lee saved 3 break points on his serve ... Bryans broke Radek in 6th game to take lead ... Lee and Radek saved 3 set points on Lee's serve in 8th game but Bryans hold their serve comfortably to won it ... In the second set Bryans broke Radek in 1st game after few errors from Radek and Lee ... Lee also needed to save break point before holding his serve in 3rd game ... Again they saved 3 break points on Radek serve before holding it in 5th game ... In their last service games first time Lee and Radek hold their serve without facing break point but they failed to put pressure on Bryans serve so one break advantage was enough for Bryans to win this set and match ... In end comfortable win for Bryans, well deserving one ... This was Bryans 4th US Open title and this was their 12 grandslam titles ... Before this they were tied with Woodies ... They now have tied the record for most Grand Slam doubles titles of all time as a team and share that record with Aussies John Newcombe and Tony Roche.

Today Radek and Lee were looking flat ... Failed to pump up and put more energy into the match ... Other hand Bryans were playing almost perfect doubles match ... In whole match They hold their serves without facing a single break point and our pair faced break points on their every serve until Lee hold in 7th game of the second set without facing a break point.
