Sania Mirza Bids Farewell to Tennis With Second-place Finish at Australian Open

The stage was set for a fairytale ending for Sania Mirza’s Grand Slam career.

Having entered the Australian Open as an unseeded pair alongside Rohan Bopanna, in what was termed as the ‘Last Dance’, the Indian pair fought their way through to the final, but failed to have their hands on the elusive mixed doubles trophy as they lost 6-7(2) 2-6 to Brazilian pair of Luisa Stefani and Rafael Mataos in the summit clash at Rod Laver Arena on Friday.

But more than the loss, it was the goodbye that left Sania teary-eyed during her emotional farewell speech after the match.
