The first Grand Slam of the year is all set to take centre stage as the tennis season has already begun. Some of the greatest players of the game, from the veteran Novak Djokovic to the emerging superstar Carlos Alcaraz, are all set to make a big mark once again in the ongoing Australian Open.
First held in 1905 as the Australasian Championships, the tournament steadily grew to become the biggest sporting event in the Southern Hemisphere. As mentioned, many top players are once again set to take part, and from India, Ritvik Bollipalli is set to make his Grand Slam debut. On the other hand, seasoned players like Rohan Bopanna, Sriram Balaji, and Yuki Bhambri will look to make their mark. Bopanna, who, alongside Australian partner Matthew Ebden, defeated the Italian pair of Simone Bolelli and Andrea Vavassori last year, will look to make his name once again, making things even more interesting.
But do you know who all the big Indian names are who have clinched titles at the Australian Open? Take a look at all the Indian players who have stamped their names with golden alphabets in this prestigious tournament.
