Correct Answer : Option (D) - Dubai



India’s Sania Mirza didn’t have a memorable ending to her career after she lost her doubles match to the Russian pair of Veronika Kudermetova and Liudmila Samsonova.

* Mirza lost her final career game on Tuesday (22nd Feb 2023) at the Dubai Tennis Championship.

* After performing her heart out in the Australian Open where she finished as the runner-up in the mixed doubles along with her childhood doubles partner Rohan Bopanna, all eyes were on Sania Mirza about how she would bring her career to an end.

 
* Although she brought an end to her Grand Slam career at Melbourne Park, she had the chance for a fairy-tale ending since she was set to play doubles in the Abu Dhabi Open and Dubai Tennis Championship.
 
* However, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) wasn’t quite kind to her. After she made a Round of 16 exit in the Abu Dhabi Open, she failed to perform in the tournament in Dubai.
 
* She partnered singles World No.23 Madison Keys and was up against the Russian pair of Veronika Kudermetova and Liudmila Samsonova. Sania and her partner, Keys, lost the match 4-6, 0-6.
 
* The first set of the match on Court 3 went right down the wire, but the Russian pair closed out the set by holding their nerves. Sania and Keys earned a break of serve, but conceded two and went down.
