We Indians have thousand differences in our life but we all wants heartily our Olympic team win more medal this time. All the best to our Olympic team & come back with more medals
The Sachin Tendulkar of Indian Tennis has finally got his way, even if it means compromising the Nation's medal prospects, and just to enter the record books as a 7-time Olympian. And poor Nandan Bal had better toe Paes' line to assure himself of a longer stint at the Khanna-led-AITA. India has to thank Paes for not insisting on pairing with Sania Mirza for Mixed Doubles too !!! The lengths peopel can go to, just to hog the limelight.
Let me remind all those half knowledge people writing in this column and talking of India first. This experiment is going to fail because it requires mutual confidence and not foolish sentiments.The behaviour of Leander does not inspire confidence in his partner. So the result is known even before the competition starts
In Davis cup & Olympics every sportsman plays for the country. So India comes First always. This is the best team India can field, and they have a good chance of a medal . Wish PAES &Bopanna All the best to come back with a medal. Thank u.
Paes is a egoistic player. He is an arrogant man. He showed his true colours when he and Mahesh broke off after being among the top seeds. Yet when he was serious Mahesh visited him in the hospital and they patched up. But can a dogs tail be straightened? He again became his natural self. All the Indian players on the circuit were treated shabbily and no one including Sania wants to partner him. Thats Paes he pained everyone and today stands begging for a seventh time olympic chance. that shows how selfish and greedy he is. Yet, thank you Boppanna for throwing the crumb to the begging man. After all for you and rest of us, India comes first. But does any where does it cover Paes is thankful to Boppanna.
Why everybody tries to avoid Leander as a partner?
At first it was Bhupati. They played very well together & won several matches, including for India. They ruled the Doubles world. But then I feel Pace\'s father dropped in & there was a large show of egos. As a result both parted. Now similar case occurred with Bopanna. He played with Pace for a while & now chooses a young one instead of experienced & fit Pace. Of course this time also some Ego problem must have errupted somewhere. Actually authorities should have listened to Bopanna & allowed him a partner of his choice - - - BECAUSE THE OLYMPIC PLACE HAS BEEN ACHIEVED BY BOPANNA & NOBODY ELSE. Let the Egoistic people go to their home. Nobody will be able to play a natural game if tied with a person who has a bloated EGO.

Because they are jealous of his achievements! Paes is the best when he represents the country and no one plays with that kind of motivation!!

Paes is quite senior to him and we should respect him. Bopanna on his own made suggestions which had to be withdrawn at the last minute at the behest of the Association. Bopana should also learn to respect the seniors as he learned a lot from Paes and others. Haste is all waste learn first?
I feel the best bet will be Paes partnering Bhupathi unless he has left playing tennis. The pair will still instill inconvenience in opposite camps. Are the players above the country which has given them infrastructure to become famous.

yes, paes and bhupathi wouldn't have split if India had actually come first. On the other hand, I think paes is now 'old man' of tennis at age of 42
Definitely the country comes first but ask these players as why they refused to partner Paes,also this aspect should also be taken since some problem arises between players they cannot give their best,let them choose the partner whom they are comfortable with because out their we will see a better performance instead of someone who they are uncomfortable with even though he might be the best player.
