The way Leander Paes is playing, he should continue as long as he can: Mahesh Bhupathi

Indian tennis great Mahesh Bhupathi on Saturday said his former Grand Slam winning partner Leander Paes was still playing well and can continue for another year.

Terming it as “The Last Roar”, Olympics bronze medalist Paes is in his last year of professional tennis career. The 46-year-old finished runner-up in his final ATP Tour match on home soil at the Bengaluru Open.

“He’s playing well still. He made the final of Bengaluru Open. If he continues to play well for a few more months, may be he will play for another year. I think the way he’s playing he should play as long as he can,” Bhupathi told PTI about Paes, with whom he has won three of his four Grand Slam doubles titles.
