India's Bopanna Retires at 45 After Grand Slam and World Ranking Feat

On Saturday, Rohan Bopanna announced his retirement on social media, confirming his final professional appearance was at the Paris Masters 1000 with Alexander Bublik.
Bopanna's late-career surge included becoming the oldest man to win a Grand Slam men's doubles title and ATP Masters 1000 crown, and last year reached doubles world No.1 at age 43.
Across the tour, Bopanna amassed 26 doubles titles, including six ATP Masters 1000 titles and a second Grand Slam doubles title; he is also a three-time Olympian and served India's Davis Cup team for over two decades.
Planning to remain in the sport, Bopanna has brought UTR Tennis Pro to India and started new initiatives, reflecting in an Instagram post that tennis gave his life meaning.
In the post, Bopanna thanked his sister Rashmi, wife Supriya, and daughter Tridha for their support and recalled a journey from chopping wood in Coorg to standing under the lights of the biggest arenas.
