Veteran Indian tennis star Rohan Bopanna and his Canadian partner Denis Shapovalov reached the quarter-finals of the US Open on Saturday. Bopanna and Shapovalov recorded a 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 win over German duo Kevin Krawietz and Andreas Mies in a match that lasted an hour and 47 minutes.
Unforced errors were their undoing as the Indo-Canadian pair was outplayed by the Germans in the first set. Both teams had almost the same first-serve percentage and hit the same number of winners but Bopanna-Shapovalov managed just over half of the points on their first serve and a third of their return points, converting one of their two breakpoints.
