Indian tennis player Rohan Bopanna has won the doubles title at the Australian Open with his Australian partner Matthew Ebden at the age of 43. The duo defeated the Italians Simone Bolelli and Andrea Vavassori with strong nerves 7:6 (7:0), 7:5 and celebrated their first Grand Slam title together.
- On Monday, Bopanna will become the oldest professional in history to become number one in the doubles competition. “I’m 43, but I always say: I’m level 43. I found a fantastic partner, we had a fantastic tournament,” said Bopanna, who turns 44 in March and has been on the professional tour for over 20 years.
- In 2017, Bopanna won the mixed doubles title at the French Open, and Ebden won the doubles competition at Wimbledon in 2022 with his former partner Max Purcell.
