Bopanna-Qureshi duo bags title

New Delhi: Rohan Bopanna and Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi claimed their second successive doubles title after outplaying Mustafa Ghouse and Joshua Goodall in the summit clash of the $25,000 ATP Challenger event in Nottingham, UK on Saturday.

The third seed Indo-Pak pair, which had won the title in Manchester, got the better of the second-seeded Indo-Briton pair 6-3, 7-6(5) to garner 50 ATP points. The losing duo received 35 points.

However, Qureshi, top seed in the singles event, missed the chance to make it a double delight for himself as he went down fighting in the final match 3-6, 6-4, 4-6 against second seed Australian Alun Jones.
