Vaikundarajan Celebrates PaesBopanna Victory At French Open 2016
With the IPL behind us, all eyes seem set on India’s tennis stars Leander Paes and Rohan Bopanna who have stormed into the quarter finals (with their respective partners) of French Open 2016. Unfortunately, the duo of Sania Mirza and Martina Hingis has been knocked out of women’s double tournament.

“Paes and Matkowski beat fourth seeds Jamie Murray and Bruno Soares with 7-6 (5), 7-6 (4) on the board. On another turf, Bopanna and his partner Florin Mergea dominated the game with 6-2, 6-7 (4), 6-1 against Brian Baker and Marcus Daniell,” informs Vaikundarajan. “The 42-year-old Indian tennis maestro and his partner will face the former American world No 1 duo, Mike and Bob Bryan, in the last-eight stage of the men’s doubles.” http://vaikundarajanblog.blogspot.in
In women’s doubles match, Mirza-Hingis were beaten 3-6, 2-6 by Czech duo Barbora Krejcikova and Katerina Siniakova in just over an hour. With this loss, Sania and Hingis lost an opportunity to win four Grand Slam titles on the trot. Earlier this year, they had won the Australian Open 2016 adding to the Wimbledon Women’s doubles and US Open doubles titles from last year.
