Mahesh Bhupathi wins the title in Delhi Open

Mahesh Bhupathi, who is making a comeback to competitive tennis after an injury lay-off, won his first title in three years as he combined with Yuki Bhambri to clinch the Delhi Open while Saketh Myneni reached the singles final, here on Saturday.

Playing high quality tennis, Bhupathi and Bhambri won 6-3, 4-6, 10-5 against defending champions Saketh Myneni and Sanam Singh in the final that was a cut above the usual Challenger level matches.

Myneni could not win the doubles title but earlier in the day he was all class, winning his singles semifinal 6-3, 6-2 against second seed Belgian Kimmer Coppejans.

He now has a chance to win his second Challenger level singles title, having won the first in October 2014 in Indore.
