They travel the world playing doubles tennis, but British brothers Ken and Neal Skupski say nights in a hotel can be boring and lonely.

They’ve found the perfect antidote during the Australian Open by staying with the Lustig family of Caulfield North, where they’re treated like royalty.

Steve Lustig, 23, is sleeping on a single bed in the spare room so that Ken can sleep on a double bed in his room.

Neal sleeps in the room of Steve’s brother Jeremy, who recently moved out.
