Italian Open: Bopanna-Ebden Suffer Second Round Exit
The Indo: The Indo-Aussie duo of Rohan Boppana and Matthew Ebden once again struggled to find their footing on the clay court as the second seeds were defeated in the Italian open by the home favourites Simone Bolleli and Andrea Vavassori in a dominant fashion winning in straight sets of 2-6 and 4-6.
This latest defeat extends their struggles to three tournaments. They have been unable to find their rhythm on the slower surface, and their struggles are a cause for concern as the French Open approaches.
The duo had a strong start to the season, claiming the Australian Open and Miami Open titles on hard courts. However, their teamwork seems to have faltered on clay. They haven't been able to string together consecutive wins. .
