Sania-Bopanna's fairytale run at AO
The Indian duo of Sania and Bopanna had a dream run at the Australian Open but unfrotunately, they couldn't cap it off with the mixed doubles winner's trophy.
Sania and Bopanna lost 6-7, 2-6 against Brazilian pair of Luisa Stefani and Rafael Matos in the final at the Rod Laver Arena on Saturday.
Talking after the game, Sania said: "If I cry, these are happy tears. I'm still going to play a couple more tournaments, but my career started in Melbourne in 2005, when I played Serena as an 18-year-old. RLA has been really special life. I couldn't think of a better arena to finish my last Grand Slam."
