India’s Rohan Bopanna & Florin Mergea Lose ATP Finals Finale
Rohan Bopanna and Florin Mergea were making their first appearance at the ATP Finals.
India’s doubles specialist Rohan Bopanna and his Romanian partner Florin Mergea went down fighting in the last match of the ATP season, losing the finale of the ATP Finals 6-4, 6-3 to Jean-Julien Rojer and Horia Tecau .
Seeded eighth in the tournament, the Indo-Romanian pair were put on the back foot right off the blocks, going down 5-0 in the first set without their opponents breaking into a sweat. While Rohan and Florin did fight their way back into the opener, the second seeds proved too good as they closed it at 6-4.
The second wasn’t any easier on the ATP Finals debutants as Jean-Julien Rojer and Horia Tecau closed out the match 6-4, 6-3 in just over an hour.
