Not even a full year on the ATP tour is yet to come Bob and Mike Bryan, the two legendary tennis twins will finish their careers after the US Open in summer 2020. Nevertheless, their racquets will not put Bryans in the corner for ever - whoever watched Bob Bryan at the ProAm during the MercedesCup in Stuttgart, for example, knows that tennis is not just a profession but also a vocation. As well as philanthropy. And so it is no wonder Bob and Mike hosted a major charity tournament for the third year running with golf god Jack Nicklaus earlier this week.
"Fore Love," the name of the event that unites a ProAm on the tennis court and on the golf course, brought in $ 1.3 million in proceeds from the Jack Nicklaus Foundation, which is dedicated to the Take care of children, benefit.
Kevin Anderson and Rory McIlroy also at the start
"Mike and I are proud of the next successful Fore Love tournament," said Bob Bryan, who also welcomed players from the WTA Tour in Florida with Caroline Wozniacki, Sofia Kenin, Olympic gold medalist Monica Puig and Cori Gauff. "We owe so much to Jack and Barbara Nicklaus, the Nicklaus Children's Health Care Foundation, as well as the incredible involvement of golf and tennis professionals and the generous support of the sponsors."
In addition to the Bryans involved in the tennis circus Kevin Anderson and Reilly Opelka, in addition to the former World Ranking First Jim Courier at the event. In addition to host Nicklaus, Rory McIlroy stood out on the side of the golf pros.
