"It was an amazing match, there was a lot of nerves. It's my last slam and it's so special to play with Rohan. He was my first mixed doubles partner when I was 14 and today I'm 36 and he is 42 and we are still playing, we have a solid relationship," Sania said after the match.  

Sania and Bopanna will play the final on January 27 at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne. They will play L Stefani and R Matos of Brazil in the summit clash. A few months ago, the news of her divorce from Shoaib Malik was floating around but the couple has not spoken on the same. Sania, for now, will be focussing on finishing her tennis career with a superb win.
