Bob and Mike Bryan won their 107th career doubles title with a 4-6, 7-6 (2), 10-4 victory over Colin Fleming and Gilles Muller in the BB&T Atlanta Open on Sunday.

The victory came in the same city where the Bryans won their first match as a doubles tandem in 1996. Atlanta is the 13th U.S. city in which they have won a title.

“Every title is special,” Mike said. “We’re just as happy now winning 107 as winning No. 1.”

The Bryans, the best doubles team in tennis history, have four titles this year heading into the U.S. Open.

The Bryans said they traditionally try to defend titles. They said they will likely decide around the U.S. Open later this year, which is when they typically set their schedule for the following year.

“We want to come back,” Bob said.
