Bopanna-Qureshi duo lost to Bryan Bros in US Open Men’s Doubles
Indo-Pak pair of Rohan Bopanna and Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi lost 6-7, 6-7 to top seed American brothers Bob and Mike Bryans in the men’s doubles final of the US Open Grand Slam in New York.
Bopanna and Qureshi, 16th seeds, did not look like a team playing their first ever Grand Slam final as they made the world number one pair work hard for points and played enthralling tennis for more than one-and-a-half hours.
It was nevertheless a dream run for the two players as for the first time an Indian and a Pakistani player combined to reach the final of a Grand Slam event.
For Bryan brothers, it was their second Grand Slam title of the season and their ninth men’s doubles crown.
