The unseeded Indo-Finnish pair, who had created a flutter upsetting Mike and Bob Bryan in the quarter-finals, found the going tough against their opponents and lost the encounter in just 50 minutes.

Haas and Stepanek converted all the four breakpoints and dropped their serve just once to run away with the winners trophy.

Bopanna and Niemenin fetched 150 ATP ranking points for their brilliant effort and split the USD 15,800 prize money between them.
