The Bryans and Lopez are concluding their 2014 season at the ATP World Tour Finals in London. The Bryans will be the top seed for the season-ending championship while Lopez is an alternate in singles.

The Bryans will finish 2014 as the No. 1 team on the ATP World Tour for the 10th time in their career and the sixth straight season. The win in Houston was one of nine titles the California twins claimed in 2014, which brings their career haul to 102. Of those titles, 16 have come at Grand Slams, including this year’s US Open.

Lopez will finish 2014 at a career-high ranking of No. 14. His season was highlighted by a successful grass court campaign in which he won the title at Eastbourne, reached the final at Queen’s Club and the fourth round at Wimbledon. The Spaniard also reached a pair of ATP Masters 1000 semifinals – at Toronto and Shanghai. Lopez will be making his third career appearance in at the U.S. Men’s Clay Court Championship.

In 2014 Fernando Verdasco defeated fellow Spaniard Nicolas Almagro for the singles title at River Oaks while the Bryans downed Verdasco and David Marrero to win the doubles title.
