Paes and Radek Stepanek, seeded fifth, went down 3-6,u00a04-6 to the second seeded American twins Mike and Bob in the title clash.

It was sweet revenge by the Bryan brothers for their loss to Paes-Stepanek in the finals of the Australian Open earlier this year. It was the Bryan brothers fourth US Open title having won it in 2005, 2008 and 2010.
