POSTED: 6:26 pm EDT September 3, 2008

(Sports Network) - The American twin Bryan brothers, Bob and Mike, were easy men's doubles semifinal winners Wednesday at the 2008 U.S. Open.

The second-seeded Bryans whipped an unseeded tandem of Spaniard Tommy Robredo and Argentine Sergio Roitman 6-2, 6-1 at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center.

The 30-year-old Bryans will face a seventh-seeded pairing of Czech Lukas Dlouhy and Indian Leander Paes in Friday's final, as Dlouhy-Paes pasted an unseeded Argentine team of Maximo Gonzalez and Juan Monaco 6-2, 6-0.

The Bryans captured the U.S. Open in 2005 and were the runners-up here in 2003.
