A six-time major champion (three in doubles and three in mixed doubles), the 36-year-old Indian has announced that the Australian Open is her last and she would be retiring after WTA 1000 Dubai Tennis Championships slated from February 19.

In men’s doubles, Ramkumar Ramanathan and the duo of Yuki Bhambri and Saketh Myneni made first round exits after losing their respective matches. 

Ramkumar and his Mexican partner Miguel Angel Reyes-Varela squandered their first set lead to go down 6-3, 5-7, 3-6 to the Tsitsipas brothers—Stefanos and Petros. Wildcard entrants Bhambri and Myneni went down 6-7, 7-6, 6-3 to the Australian-German pair of Andreas Mies and John Peers in a two-hour 45-minute battle.
