Bemoaning that India is not a sporting nation, tennis legend Sania Mirza has expressed disappointment at missing an Olympic medal and said that the day she and Rohan Bopanna lost the bronze medal match in the Rio Olympic Games in 2016 as "one of the worst days" of her life.

Sania has won three women's doubles and three mixed doubles titles in Grand Slam besides gold medals in the 2006 Doha and 2010 Incheon Asian Games. She is the only Indian woman player to be ranked No.1 in doubles and top-30 in women's singles during a professional career that stretched for two decades -- from February 2003 to February 2023.
