MELBOURNE: Rohan Bopanna's pepper-salt beard speaks of a durability that has survived the test of time. At age 43, he will be the oldest ATP doubles No.1 in history when the new rankings come out on Monday.
Bopanna and his Australian partner Matthew Ebden scored a 6-4, 7-6 (5) win over sixth-seeded Argentines, Maximo Gonzalez and Andreas Molteni, in the Australian Open quarterfinals here on Wednesday.
