pull-out, India won a doubles gold

Not much was expected from the tennis contingent, especially with the absence of stalwarts Leander Paes who pulled out of the Men’s doubles at the last moment and Sania Mirza who is expecting her first child.

Yet, the pair of Rohan Bopanna and Divij Sharan kept their calm to win four matches in a row convincingly. They defeated the Kazakhstan pair of Alexander Bublik and Denis Yevseyev 6-3, 6-4 in the summit clash to ensure that a Men’s doubles medal has returned home in each edition since 2002.

Prajnesh Gunneswaran and Ankita Raina were the bronze medalists in tennis.
