Doubles specialist Rohan Bopanna will turn 45 in March 2025. The Indian player, a tour veteran, won this year's Australian Open alongside Matthew Ebden.

Ranked world No. 15 in the ATP doubles rankings, Bopanna will finish 2024 in the Top 100 for the 18th year running, a testament to his consistency and longevity.

But what's even more impressive is that he's not the record-holder in this statistic, as his compatriot Leander Paes, another Indian doubles legend, is ahead of him.

Paes, who retired after the 2020 season at the age of 47, spent 24 years in the world's Top 100 in doubles.

A statistic Bopanna could beat if he plays until the age of 51!
