Rohan Bopanna's journey to the Paris Olympics has been marked by a significant comeback after battling injuries and a stalled career during the COVID-19 pandemic. At the age of 44, Bopanna, who previously reached the world No. 1 ranking in doubles and won the Australian Open with partner Matthew Ebden, faced an early exit in the men's doubles at the Olympics, losing in the first round alongside N Sriram Balaji. Despite this setback, Bopanna remains determined to leverage his past successes, including a Grand Slam title at Roland Garros in 2017, and aims to make a strong impact in future tournaments. His experience and Balaji's youthful vigor create a promising partnership, even as they navigate the challenges of preparation. Fellow Indian player Sumit Nagal also competes in the men's singles, bringing confidence from his recent ranking climb. Bopanna's story reflects resilience, embodying the spirit of perseverance in sports.
