Rohan Bopanna has broken his own record, winning the Miami Open to become the oldest ever ATP Masters champion. Aged 44, he won the tournament with partner Matthew Ebden and etched his name in history once again.

The top-seeded Indian-Aussie pair took down second seeds Croatian Ivan Dodig and American Austin Krajicek 6-7(3) 6-3 10-6 in the final after pocketing the last six points in the match tiebreak of the closely fought contest.

Rohan Bopanna sets new record as oldest ATP Masters Champion

Rohan Bopanna has also returned to the top of the rankings, replacing Krajicek at the top of the doubles table. This is the sixth ATP title he has won, and it marks another chapter in the iconic career he has had so far.

The veteran has proven that age truly is just a number, having won the Australian Open earlier this year to set the record for the oldest champion himself. Bopanna and Ebden have a record of 14-3, and have been mighty impressive in the first three months of 2024.
