Sharapova, Bryan Brothers Inducted into 2025 Tennis Hall of Fame Class
In a prestigious recognition, Maria Sharapova and twins Bob and Mike Bryan were named to the International Tennis Hall of Fame’s Class of 2025. The induction ceremony will be held on August 23 in Newport, Rhode Island, where they will be celebrated for their trailblazing achievements and contributions to tennis.
At 37, Sharapova’s legacy includes being the first Russian woman to achieve the world No. 1 ranking in 2005. Her career highlights feature a career Grand Slam, placing her among just ten women to accomplish this feat, and a silver medal from the 2012 Olympics. Despite a 15-month suspension in 2016 due to a meldonium-related controversy, Sharapova’s remarkable achievements, including nearly $40 million in prize money, have made her a global icon.
American twins Bob and Mike Bryan are celebrated as the most successful doubles team in tennis history. Their career boasts 16 Grand Slam titles, an Olympic gold medal, and a record 438 weeks as the world No. 1 team. Together, they hold an impressive 119 titles, including 39 ATP Masters 1000 championships.
Hall of Fame President Kim Clijsters highlighted the Class of 2025’s significant impact, stating, “Beyond their historic accomplishments on the court, the Class of 2025 has had a profound impact on the game of tennis, inspiring multiple generations of fans worldwide.” As Sharapova and the Bryan brothers prepare for their induction, their legacies continue to shape the sport’s future.
