The Duos Achievements Together

In the same year, they also won the French Open. Bhupathi and Paes also became the first pair to reach the finals of all four Grand Slams. This was the first time since 1952 that such a feat was achieved in the open era.
In remembrance of this time, on July 4 Leander Paes posted a picture of the duo holding the trophy from their win at Wimbledon. Paes wrote, “22 years ago today, we became the first Indians to win Wimbledon. As two young boys, all we dreamt of was making our country proud.” Tennis fans frenzied when Mahesh Bhupathi replied, “Hmmm…That was special!!! Do you think it’s time to write another chapter?” It was a treat for the fans because despite being one of the most successful pairs in the world during their career they haven’t played together as a team for several years.
