Bopanna all set to become No. 1, the oldest among men’s doubles players to do so

The Hindu  

Sportspersons tend to believe that even at the fag end of their careers, they still have the talent to revive the pleasures associated with their once pristine pasts. Rohan Bopanna has long been convinced by this, and on Wednesday at the Australian Open, he tasted salvation following his 6-4, 7-6 quarterfinal victory over Argentines Maximo Gonzalez and Andres Molteni. He made eight finals, including two at Grand Slams after a gap of five years — with Sania Mirza in Australian Open mixed doubles and with Ebden in US Open men’s doubles. 1 can may be inspire other young guys to pick up a racquet, or a sport, or just in life in general.” Bopanna’s two decades as a professional is a tribute to his persistence, for sporting careers can sometimes gratuitously grind to a halt. But I found newer ways to persevere and I am proud of that.” Bopanna’s former Davis Cup captain Anand Amritraj was wholesome in his praise.
