Tennis : brotherly love.

You probably know it already. Last Sunday in Paris, Daniel Nestor and Nenad Zimonjic lost 6-3, 7-6(4) in the doubles final to the Bryan brothers.

This is not acceptable. While the Nestor-Zimonjic couple has barely entered its get-to-know-each-other-better phase, they are opposed to twin brothers who have known each other since their first day on earth.

Twin brothers should not be tolerated any more than steroids in professional tennis.

Instead of facing two opponents, you face twice the same one : four legs, four arms, two rackets, but controlled by one single central unit.

With real twins, it is even worse : the wide open door to cheating. How can you be sure the same one is not always serving, the same one not always returning your serve ?

Let us petition to ban twin brothers from playing doubles together.
