Bob Bryan Interview: Doubles Rule Changes, USA Captain, & The Huckleberry Play

Doubles Only Tennis Podcast

Bob Bryan is a 23-time doubles grand slam champion (16 men's, 7 mixed), and Captain of the US Olympic and Davis Cup team. Bob and his brother, Mike, known as the Bryan Bros, are widely regarded as the greatest doubles team of all time.
In this conversation with Bob, you'll hear us discuss potential rule changes that could help doubles, how he's transitioned from player to coach, his experience captaining at the Olympics where his US doubles teams beat Rafael Nadal, Carlos Alcaraz, Andy Murray, and won Silver and Bronze Medals, and more.
Bob also shares how the game has changed over the last 20+ years and how he would train differently if starting his doubles career tomorrow. At the end, he shares one of his and Mike's favorite doubles strategies that club-level players should absolutely use.
I hope to have Bob (and Mike) on more in the future as the show continues to grow and we try to help grow doubles. They've done more for doubles than anyone and it's inspiring to see them continue to be involved in our sport.
