The second-seeded pair of Rohan Bopanna and Matt Ebden took on the Belgian pair of Gille-Vliegen in the quarter-finals of the French Open men’s doubles on Wednesday.
The road to the quarter-finals hasn’t been an easy one for Bopanna and Ebden. Both their first and third-round fixtures were three-set affairs.
In the third-round, the Indo-Australian duo were pushed to the brink of elimination by the unseeded Varela-Balaji and needed a super tie-break in the third-set to book a quarter-final berth.
As it happened on The Bridge.
