WIMBLEDON, England (AP) — American twins Bob and Mike Bryan have been upset in the Wimbledon quarterfinals by 39-year-old Dick Norman of Belgium and Wesley Moodie of South Africa.

The second-seeded Bryans, the 2006 champions at the All England Club, lost to the seventh-seeded pairing of Norman and Moodie 7-6 (4), 7-6 (5), 6-7 (3), 7-5 Wednesday.

The Bryans, of Wesley Chapel, Fla., were bidding for their ninth Grand Slam title; they won No. 8 at the Australian Open in January.

The brothers are still seeking their record 62nd title as a team. They tied the Open era mark of 61 men’s doubles titles — originally set by the retired Australian pair of Todd Woodbridge and Mark Woodforde — by winning at Madrid in May.
