Welcome to the official website of the top Israeli doubles team of Andy Ram and Jonathan Erlich.

Erlich and Ram formed their partnership in 2003 and immediately achieved success by reaching the semifinals of Wimbledon as qualifiers.  They have been a top 10 doubles team since 2005.  They qualified for the Year End Masters in 2007 and have career wins over the Bryan Brothers and several other top teams. 

Andy Ram has won 2 Grand Slam Mixed Doubles Champions…the 2006 Wimbledon with Vera Zvonareva and 2007 French Open with Nathalie Dechy.

Erlich and Ram played almost flawless tennis in January and captured their first Grand Slam trophy at the Australian Open.  Catapulting them into the number one spot in the ATP Doubles Race.  The first time they are ranked number one in their careers.

Erlich and Ram are part of Israel’s strong Davis Cup Team and helped their team get into the 2008 World Division, where they face Sweden beginning February 8.  Erlich and Ram have competed in the Olympics and will be heading to Beijing this August to represent the nation of Israel.

Erlich and Ram created Jewish Sports Foundation which is their way of giving back to the American community who helped fund their initial tennis training at Israeli Tennis Centers, throughout their country.  Children participating in all sports, not just tennis are qualified to receive help.

Thank you for visiting their website and following Erlich and Ram as they take their special brand of tennis around the world and continue to reach heights in their young career.

Andy Ram and Yoni Erlich returned to a hero's welcome at Ben-Gurion Airport on Monday morning, two days after making Israeli sporting history by claiming the Australian Open men's doubles title.

The Israeli duo, who became the first Israeli team to win a Grand Slam event, were met by Sports Minister Ghaleb Majadle and all the heads of Isreal's Tennis Association on their arrival.

"The excitement here is greater than after the match point in the final," Erlich said after landing in Israel.

"I never dreamt that we would reach such a moment. This is an amazing period, and this result shows that we can go all the way in the Olympics as well."

Ram could also hardly contain his excitement. "You play tennis all your life to reach these kinds of moments," he said.

"We believed we could accomplish this for years, and now we have done it. I've already taken two Grand Slam mixed doubles titles, but those triumphs come nowhere near to what we did in Melbourne."
