Aus Open: Yuki Bhambri Advances, Sriram Balaji Loses Men's Doubles Round Two
Yuki Bhambri: India's Yuki Bhambri and his partner Andre Goransson of Sweden fought back from a set behind to beat Mexico’s Santiago Gonzalez and the Netherlands’ David Pel in the men's doubles second round at the Australian Open 2026 on Saturday. India, however, suffered a setback as another star, Sriram Balaji, and his partner went out of the competition at Melbourne Park.
Bhambri, India’s top-ranked men’s doubles player, and Goransson, the 10th seeds, came from a set down to beat Gonzalez and Pel 4-6, 7-6(5), 6-3 in a hard-fought second-round clash. The Indo-Swedish pair was slow off the blocks and dropped the opening set after Bhambri was broken in the third game.
The match was suspended due to the Australian Open’s extreme heat policy when the second set was tied at 2-2.
