The American duo of Mike Bryan & Jack Sock have been named the ATPWorldTour.com Fans Favorites, presented by Moët & Chandon in the 2018 ATP World Tour Awards. Bryan previously won this award with his twin brother Bob Bryan from 2005-2017.

“It feels great to win the Fans’ Favorite,” said Bryan. “It’s been a fun season with Jack. This guy is a human highlight reel, so I think the fans love watching the replays of the tweeners and those huge forehands. Thanks to the ATP for this Award. Thanks for all the fans that voted.”

The team of Bryan and Sock formed when Mike’s brother, Bob Bryan, was feeling the effects of a hip injury back in May that eventually required surgery. Mike then teamed up with Sock to capture the final two Grand Slams in 2018, the Men’s Doubles Title at Wimbledon and again in September in Flushing Meadows at the U.S. Open.

“I think the only reason I’ll have that award at home is because of this guy and what he and his brother have done for so many years,” commented Sock. “I think they’ve won it 60 years in a row, so I’m glad I could just fill in for one year and tag along.”
