Like Fish, Bryan, who was a USTA coach, was fined $10,000 and given a four-month suspended sentence in November last year for promoting a gambling company. In his playing career, Bryan won the Davis Cup in 2007 and a total of 16 Grand Slam titles in doubles with his twin brother Mike.
It won't really get serious for Bryan until September. As in the previous year, the intermediate round in the Davis Cup will be held at four different locations, which have not yet been determined.
Bob Bryan himself played a total of 31 times for the US team between 2003 and 2020, winning the title in 2007. With brother Mike, Bob has a record of 25 wins and just five losses.
