Leander Paes is not exactly a close friend by any stretch of imagination but Rohan Bopanna insists that they have a “great on-court chemistry”, which enabled them to make a short work of Koreans Hong Chung and Seong Chan Hong, here on Saturday.
Bopanna and Paes overwhelmed the Korean pair of Hong Chung and Seong Chan Hong 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 in the Davis Cup regional doubles encounter to seal the tie for India.
“Chemistry was great. If it wasn’t good, we could not have got such a convincing win. We did not push much and just made sure that we come out strong,” Bopanna said.
Paes, however did not take any questions on Olympics saying they should not be asked about the Games always.
“We have won in three sets. We are playing well. It has been a great season for us. We are sharp. Even if the competition was tougher, we could have raised the level of our game,” the 43-year-old winner of 18 Grand Slam titles, said.
Paes was all praise for Ramkumar Ramanathan and Saketh Myneni, who overcame tough conditions to give India a 2-0 lead on Friday.
