Lopez team knocks out Bryan brothers at US Open

— -- Lopez and Lopez have once again beaten Bryan and Bryan at a major tournament.

The eighth-seeded Spanish doubles team of Feliciano Lopez and Marc Lopez defeated third-seeded Bob and Mike Bryan 7-6 (2), 4-6, 6-3 in the quarterfinals to deny the Bryans their quest for a 17th Grand Slam title. It was a rematch of the French Open final, where the Lopezes also beat the Bryans in three sets.

The Lopezes, who are not related, move on to the semifinals to take on the winner of the match between Spaniards Pablo Carreno Busta and Guillermo Garcia-Lopez and No. 12 seeds Lukasz Kubot of Poland and Alexander Peya of Austria.

Marc Lopez teamed with Rafael Nadal to win the gold medal in men's doubles at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics.
