ATP Rankings: Indian star tennis doubles player Rohan Bopanna jumped two spots from 11th to 9th position to enter the top 10 in the latest ATP Rankings for doubles. The 43-year-old veteran player has displayed brilliant play this year after starting the season ranked 19th. Bopanna did not have a great 2022 season due to a knee injury, which forced him to withdraw from multiple events in 2022, including the Davis Cup. The former World No. 3 player has since recovered from his injury and reached the mixed doubles final at the Australian Open. In ATP tour events, he has made the finals in Rottendam, Qatar, and Madrid while winning the title in Indian Wells. Follow Tennis Rankings 2023 LIVE updates on InsideSport.IN
