Feliciano Lopez and Marc Lopez have won the French Open doubles title after defeating Bob and Mike Bryan in the final 6-4 6-7 (6) 6-3.

They've become the first Spanish pair to win at Roland Garros in 26 years, and denied the most successful duo of all time a 17th major title.

Their victory also benefited Frenchman Nicolas Mahut, who will top the doubles ranking for the first time next week.
