The most successful year of Matt Ebden's distinguished doubles career has continued with the evergreen Australian reaching the semi-finals at the season-ending ATP Finals in Turin.
The 35-year-old Perth player teamed up with India's 43-year-old Rohan Bopanna to beat Wimbledon champions, Briton Ken Skupski and Dutchman Wesley Koolhof 6-4 7-6 (7-5) in Friday's group decider to ensure the veteran pair made the last four.
Bopanna again enhanced his new record as the oldest man ever to win a match at the ATP Finals while both he and Ebden are still on course to end the season as joint world No.1s should they go on to lift the title on Sunday.
