French Open: Bopanna-Dabrowski beat Sania-Dodig to enter semis

PARIS: Rohan Bopanna and his Canadian partner

Gabriela Dabrowski

stormed into the semi-finals of the mixed doubles event of the French Open with a straight-set upset win over the duo of Sania Mirza and

Ivan Dodig

of Croatia here on Monday.

The Bopanna-Dabrowski pair, seeded seventh, defeated the second-seeded Sania-Dodig pair 6-3, 6-4 in the 52-minute quarter-finals contest that involved two Indians.

Bopanna is the only Indian left in the fray in the Grand Slam tournament. He is though already out of the men's doubles event.

With Monday's loss, Sania's campaign ended in the tournament. She and her Kazakh partner

Yaroslava Shvedova

had crashed out of the women's doubles event in the opening round.
