The legend is not dependent on any player. He is at rank high enough to get there. And any ranking can't decide how great he as a player is. Paes and Bopanna should be a team only because they are best placed Indian players on rankings. And Paes had asked to partner Bopanna only because he wanted to have next best ranked player.
 
Just a reminder to you Paes has won 4 grand slams recently compared to ZERO of Bopanna. He did not have a stable partner and some injuries costed him in rankings. You can not say he isn't playing as good as Bopanna on circuit only because he is ranked lower. He made Quarters at RG, so did Bopanna with his regular partner. He won title in Mixed, while Bopanna lost in second round itself. 
 
Yes and last time Paes was wrong so he is missing mixed doubles this year. All settles here.
He deserves to be in Men's Doubles more than any other player. Saketh Myneni over Leander, really? 

India will Field 9 member boxing team for the upcoming Olympics qualifiers

Team: L Devendro Singh (49 kg) Gaurav Bidhuri (52 kg), Dheeraj Rangi (60 kg), Manoj Kumar (64 kg), Mandeep Jangra (69 kg), Vikas Krishan (75 kg), Sumit Sangwan (81 kg), Amritpreet Singh (91 kg), Satish kumar (+91 kg).

 

It looks certain now that Sushil will miss Rio Games. I am very disappointed with him for giving qualifying tournaments a miss. You can't stay injured for 4 years com'on! You don't become greater than the game even if you achieve so much. You just can't expect everything served to you and you won't give any try from your side.
 
I still want Sushil to be there and win a medal coz he is the best wrestler we ever sent to the Games and a medal is sure but he shouldn't have taken things for granted. Very unprofessional 

Why is Mahesh Bhupathi even trying to qualify? He is not eligible to play Olympics.
 
Rule:
Players must be part of a nominated team for three Fed Cup (women) or Davis Cup (men) events between the 2012 and 2016 olympics. This requirement is reduced to two Fed/Davis Cup events from 2013 to 2016 if their nation competed at the Zone Group round robin level for three of the four years or if the player has represented their nation at least twenty times. All players must have been part of a nominated team for a Fed/Davis Cup event in 2015 or 2016
 
Bhupathi is not a part of national team for 4 years now.

I'm expecting Sania Rohan team this time. Leander is not up to the mark these days and his partnership with Sania hasn't worked so well either. Sania and Rohan are good friends since long and they have done well together. They teamed up recently at ITPL and results were great.
Also Rohan is in form. In addition to that both will get a good seed. Their combined rank is 12
