During this time of growth, there was a momentous invitation. The Echein Open, first Grand Slam tournament of the season was coming up. The tournament wanted the brothers to play. Due to their age, they all could play in the boy's bracket. It would only be worth half as many points as the men's bracket, but the opponents would all be under 18 like them. With their levels, they could win in any bracket that they entered. Anna told them to get in contact with them to ask to join the qualifiers for the main brackets. Everyone thought it was a long shot. When they won, the other Grand Slams would be within reach. The Acros Open, Sparia Tourney and Esnus Open would be great places to go. Winning all 4 would give them the big Career Slam milestone. Doing so in the same calendar year would be insane. They would instantly be contenders for the "greatest of all time" status. First, they had to win the first one. It was a hard court. They had to go in the week before for the qualifiers. They all blazed through it. Anna teamed with Reilly for mixed doubles. They won it together.
Evan and Reilly made it to the finals in doubles. They met Reid and Rhys. Reid and Rhys won the men's doubles. Ronan made history in the men's singles. It brought a lot more eyes on them. Winning also brought them to the top 100 in the world. With a main draw of 128, they did not need to worry about qualifiers. The Acros Open was next. At just a month later, they were shoo ins. Just like in the Echein Open, they had a clean sweep. These wins brought Reid, Ronan and Rhys to the top 10. Mixed doubles did not count towards the rankings above the IPTB 250 tournaments. They were open leagues for those who qualified through their doubles ranking. Anna did not care about tennis enough to continue playing on the women's tour. Winning Grand Slam titles was worth it though. The Sparia Tourney was played on a grass court and the Esnus Open was on clay. That did not stop the 4 brothers from winning all 4 grand slam tournaments. That gave them the Calendar Career Slam in their chosen events. Reid, Ronan and Rhys were all world #1. Reilly and Evan were #15.
5 years in-game passed and they had to retire. It was their grandfather that ordered that. It was unfortunate, but they had amazing careers. Reilly and Evan went to more of the IPTB 500 and 1000 tournaments worldwide to crawl their way into the top 10 for doubles. Their highest ever was #5 and the retired at #8. Ronan had rivalries with the other top 5 players. They were alphas and went all over the world, but they could never beat him on the court. Even when they won a tournament to edge him out of the top spot, he would just go to a tournament in a country safe for omegas and win the #1 spot back. The Grand Slams belonged to the brothers. Anna convinced a favored to win team of Reid and Rhys to yield to the beleaguered team of Evan and Reilly in the quarterfinals of their third Sparia Tourney. It was the only Grand Slam that Evan won. Ronan was a recent mother, but he made it look easy. Ronan won the Career Slam 5 times in singles. Reid and Rhys won the Career Slam 4 times with 3 other slam titles. Reilly won 21 titles. 20 in mixed doubles. Evan had 1 title.
