From Champion Of Peace To World No. 1 In Doubles, Bopanna's Tennis Journey Goes On And On
ATP World Tour Finals: In the annals of Indian tennis, which has been dominated by the likes of Ramanathan Krishnan, Ramesh Krishnan, Leander Paes, Mahesh Bhupathi and Sania Mirza, Rohan Bopanna has carved a niche for himself by the dint of his talent, hard work and longevity.
He is the oldest first-time world no. 1 at the age of 43, achieving the top ranking in men's doubles earlier this week. He has further extended his aura by reaching his first final in the Australian Open 2024.
Bopanna is the fourth Indian to win a Grand Slam title after Paes, Bhupathi and Mirza and has now joined the list of star tennis players who have also been awarded the prestigious Padma Shri Award on Thursday.
