The combination of their talent, twin brother dynamic, and personality of the court (they front the boyband Sons of Deans that performs at many of their stops) make them beloved by fans across the world. Their natural identical beauty however - admits tennis colleague, Roger Federer trouble him to tell the twins apart. The famous ATP-tennis player admits he sometimes got them mixed up: ‘I used to sometimes if I couldn’t see their faces right away. ‘But no, nowadays I’m a pro. Of course, I can tell them apart".
The twins, Per Holmen and Claus Holmen, is currently preparing for the World Tennis Double Championships in Copenhagen: "Every day we wake up with the purpose to try to improve ourselves, our games, work hard, have a couple of drinks, work even harder, drink, hard work, drink and try to get the payoff at the championships."

- 1108 match wins (only one other player has won more than 800)
- 16 SlamBang grand slams (second is 11 with no other team having more than 5)
