Five-time singles major champion Maria Sharapova and American twins Bob and Mike Bryan, who formed the most successful doubles team in history, were named to the International Tennis Hall of Fame’s Class of 2025, organisers said on Thursday.
The Class of 2025 will be enshrined at an 23 August induction ceremony at the Hall of Fame in Newport, Rhode Island.
Sharapova, one of only 10 women in tennis to achieve a career Grand Slam in singles, became the first Russian woman to reach the world No 1 ranking in 2005.
