Lucky to have Sania as my partner, says Martina Hingis

Swiss veteran tennis player Martina Hingis heaped praise on her women's doubles partner Sania Mirza yesterday, ahead of the Champions Tennis League (CTL) that begins today.

Hingis, who will play for Hyderabad Aces in the CTL, spelt out the Indian's strengths. "Sania has improved a lot on the nets. We all know she is extremely good at the backhand, but she has improved on the nets too. Hoping to continue this good runs in days to come. Lucky to have Sania as a partner in the incredible journey," the 35-year-old said of her World No 1 partner.
