Twenty-six ATP titles. Six Masters 1000 crowns. Two decades on a tour that is unforgiving to the slow, played from a country that offered him almost none of the scaffolding his competitors took for granted, in a discipline that depends—every single week—on the form of someone else’s forehand.
Few careers in professional tennis have unfolded quite like Rohan Bopanna’s. The man who, at 43 years and 331 days, became the oldest world No. 1 in the history of tennis doubles, won the Australian Open men’s doubles title on his sixty-first Grand Slam attempt, and retired last November on his own terms, at the top of the game.
We will sit down with him to discuss longevity as a function of adaptation rather than endurance, the engineering of partnerships in a sport built on temporary teams, and what it takes to become world-class.
In conversation with Ramarao Suresh, ILC member, founder of Insist Consulting, a long-time associate of Rohan’s and a lover of tennis.
