Women鈥檚 doubles world No. 1 Mirza makes history
Print Edition
PRIME Minister Narendra Modi yesterday led the accolades for Sania Mirza after she became the first Indian woman to be crowned the world’s top-ranked doubles tennis player.
“An excellent accomplishment @MirzaSania! Congrats on being World Number 1 in doubles,” Modi tweeted. Mirza, 28, climbed to the top of the rankings after she won the Family Circle doubles title in Charleston, United States, on Sunday while partnering Swiss great Martina Hingis. It was the third successive title for the duo, also the No. 1 doubles pair, after their victories in the hardcourt events in Indian Wells and Miami. Messages also poured in from cricket great Sachin Tendulkar, current test captain Virat Kohli and badminton star Saina Nehwal, who was briefly ranked as the No. 1 singles player earlier this month.
