Twin Tennis Terrors

The Bryan brothers take the court

By Christian Schaeffer

Published on July 16, 2008

St. Louis sports fans must be getting tired of those "I-70" series, in which our home team takes on the Kansas City squad. It didn't work out so hot for the Cardinals when the boys in red got swept by the subpar Royals earlier this summer, for example. Here's hoping that the St. Louis Aces can restore our injured pride when our local racqueteers play against the Kansas City Explorers this evening. The Explorers will be bringing along twin brothers (and doubles partners) Bob and Mike Bryan, fresh off their appearance in the Gentleman's Double Semifinals at Wimbledon. Tickets are $40 for adults and $25 for children thirteen and younger. The action starts at 7:15 p.m. and takes place at the Dwight Davis Memorial Tennis Center in Forest Park. For more information call 314-647-2237 or visit www.stlouisaces.com.
