Sania Mirza
Sania Mirza's first tournament in more than a year ended with a semi-final defeat as she was ousted from the Qatar Open along with her partner Andreja Klepac, here on Thursday.
Sania and her Slovenian partner lost 5-7, 6-2, 5-10 to America's Nicole Melichar and Dutch player Demi Schuurs in one hour and 28 minutes.
Playing against players, who are ranked 11 and 12 in the world was tough but it was a decent outing for Sania, who recovered from COVID-19 recently.
It was first tournament for the Indian since last February. Sania and Klepac earned 185 ranking points each.
