BIRMINGHAM, England: Indian tennis star Sania Mirza suggests she may have only two more years on tour after winning her first match since marrying Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik.
Despite twin distractions of a high-profile wedding and a persistent wrist injury, Mirza played with remarkable assertiveness to beat rising young Taiwanese Chan Yung-Jan 6-1, 6-4, in the first round of the Aegon Classic on Monday.
Mirza spoke positively about being separated so soon from Shoaib, and for a lengthy period of time, saying: “The distance between us is difficult. But we will be together for life hopefully, so two years isn’t long.”
