Mahesh On Top

Mahesh Bhupati has made it a routine to win Grand Slams. It is highly creditable on his part to win ten Grand Slam titles, be it men’s doubles or mixed doubles. He with Leander Paes has led to the resurgence of professional tennis in India and youngsters like Prakash Amritraj, Rohan Bopanna and Harsh Mankad can only improve their game following their footsteps. A word of praise is also deserved by Martina Hingis, who after an injury-induced lay-off for three years has picked up from where she had left. It is hoped that that the Mahesh-Martina duo will win many more titles, contrary to the Indian’s track-record of winning each of his Grand Slam titles with different partners.
