Yearly summary

edit

Bopanna alongside Ebden reached the Adelaide International final in their first outing of the 2024 season,[3] where they lost to the pair of Rajeev Ram and Joe Salisbury in a tight match.[3]

At the 2024 Australian Open, seeded second for the first time in Bopanna's career, the Indian/Australian duo reached the third round with a straight sets win over the 14th-seeded pair of Wesley Koolhof and Nikola Mektic,[4] Bopanna's 500th doubles win,[5] that assured him a career high ranking of world No. 2.[6] Bopanna was in contention with Austin Krajicek for the ATP No. 1 doubles ranking and he achieved it with the quarterfinal win over the Argentinian pair of Máximo González and Andrés Molteni.[7] He also became the oldest first-time world No. 1 at age 43, and became the highest ranked Indian doubles player since Leander Paes in 1999.[8][9][10][11] Bopanna and Ebden reached their first Australian Open final with a tight win in three sets with a super tiebreaker over the unseeded pair of Tomáš Macháč and Zhizhen Zhang.[12] In the final, they won in straight sets, defeating the Italian duo of Simone Bolelli and Andrea Vavassori.[13] It was Bopanna's first doubles Major title. It took him 61 attempts and 19 partners to accomplish the feat.[14]

The Indo-Aussie pair decided not to defend their points at the 2024 Rotterdam Open and the 2024 Qatar Open. Since Ebden's next-best results for ranking purposes were better than Bopanna's, Ebden attained the World No. 1 doubles ranking when their 2023 points were replaced on 26 February 2024.[15][16] Bopanna reclaimed the top ranking once again on 4 March 2024 after winning his first round match at the Dubai Tennis Championships. However, he lost the top rank after failing to defend his Indian Wells title at the 2024 Indian Wells Open. He lost in the first round to the Belgian duo of Sander Gille and Joran Vliegen after a closely contested match.[17]

The following week, Bopanna played at the 2024 Miami Open, where he became just the second Indian player to reach the final of all ATP Masters events.[18] The pair went on to lift the trophy by defeating Ivan Dodig and Austin Krajicek in the final.[19] At the age of 44, Bopanna overtook his own record to become the oldest ATP Masters 1000 finalist and champion.[20] It was their second Masters 1000 as a pair, Bopanna's sixth and Ebden's second overall.[21] His semifinal victory over the 4th seeded pair of Marcel Granollers and Horacio Zeballos also meant that he would once again regain the ATP world no.1 doubles rank.[22]

In April, at the 2024 Monte-Carlo Masters, Bopanna lost in the second round to Marcelo Arévalo and Mate Pavić after receiving a bye in the first round. As a result, he also lost his doubles top rank to his partner Ebden.[23] At his next tournament, 2024 Madrid Open, Bopanna lost his opening round match against the eventual champions, Sebastian Korda and Jordan Thompson in the straight sets.[24] The following week at the 2024 Italian Open, the Indo-Aussie pair won their first round match against the wildcard Italian pair of Matteo Arnaldi and Francesco Passaro. In the second round, they lost in the straight sets to the Italian pair of Simone Bolelli and Andrea Vavassori.[25]
