MADRID, Sept. 16 (UPI) -- American Bob Bryan, half of the world's No. 1-ranked doubles team, has withdrawn from this week's Davis Cup semifinal series with Spain.
Bryan and his twin brother Mike are 14-2 in doubles play in the often pivotal third match of the best-of-five Davis Cup series but a shoulder injury has forced Bob Bryan to withdraw. U.S. captain Patrick McEnroe replaced him with Mardy Fish.
