Americans blog from the 2010 Australian Open

Rajeev Ram and Eric Butorac, Jan. 24, 2010

ERIC: We started to beat a lot of the top teams and we realized that if we stick together we could make the ATP World Finals because

 

only about 15 teams stay together throughout the year. There's so much switching that if you stick it out and get a few good results you can get in there. There are teams we think we are just as good as that got in just because they stuck together.

RAJEEV:

 

We've won a lot of matches where we didn't feel that great and we still managed to get through. That has a lot to do with chemistry. We don't have to play our best to win, and then when we do, we are very tough to beat.

Bob and Mike Bryan, Jan. 22, 2010

This year, one of our goals is to tie the “Woodies” record of all-time doubles titles. We have 56 and are just five away.

"Al principio no me sentí cómodo. Llodra hace saque y red muy bien, corta mucho con slice, drops, es difícil agarrar el ritmo. El tercer set fue duro mentalmente, porque cuando me ponía por delante con el saque para ganar el set, él jugaba mejor y eso me desilusionaba",

"Tuve que poner garra, jugué bien un par de puntos en el tie break, lo gané y al comienzo del cuarto set empecé a soltar más el brazo y a sacar mejor. Además, vi que él no estaba muy bien físicamente y por suerte lo pude dar vuelta".

"Me gusta jugar contra Davydenko porque juega a un ritmo muy alto. Desde el primer punto tenés que estar muy focalizado y eso es bueno porque me obliga a estar al cien por ciento de cabeza y de piernas. Y me gusta entrar en ese ritmo de vértigo de correr mucho y pegarle fuerte"

Sometimes I drink clear vodka, sometimes mixed with Red Bull. Little bit get power in night club or disco.

It's interesting. We're not talking about tennis. We're talking about my life. This is my first experience like this in the press (laughter.)

Yes. No. Yes and no. Really, I would like have kids now, like Federer already two have, or Hewitt. You know, we have the same age. But my wife don't want to, you know, stay at home. She travel with me now.

She analyze because she's travel with me already six years. Because in sitting with my brother, and brother always talking about what I did, right, left, everything, forehand. She can coaching me already.

She can explain what I did wrong in the match after the match. It's interesting, because I cannot see really what is a problem was in the match for sure, and she can explain.
