Rohan Bopanna is living proof that it’s never too late to give up on your dreams.
The Indian tennis player is set to become the oldest tennis world number one and is one step away from landing a second Grand Slam title after years of perseverance.
Along with playing partner Matthew Ebden, the 43-year-old reached the men’s doubles final at the Australian Open on Thursday.
Born in southeast India in 1980, Bopanna never expected to one day become a world-class tennis player. His father worked as a coffee planter and his mother is a housewife.
