6
Rohan Bopanna and his Romanian partner Florin Mergea reached the men’s doubles quarterfinals of 2015 Paris Masters after defeating the Colombian duo of Juan Sebastian Cabal and Robert Farah 6-7(3), 6-4, 10-5 on Wednesday. The eighth-seeded Indo-Romanian pair had received a bye into the second round.
Bopanna-Mergea lost the first set on tie-break, but fought back hard to win the second set, and the all-important super tie-break. The duo will next face second-seeded pair of Ivan Dodig and top-ranked Marcelo Melo, to whom they had lost to in the Cincinnati Masters quarterfinals earlier this year.
