Super tiebreak success for Venus and Bhambri

Wednesday, 20 August 2025

Michael Venus and Yuki Bhambri have fought back to have an impressive win in the first round of doubles at the ATP 250 tournament in Winston-Salem, USA.

Venus and his Indian partner, Bhambri defeated Austin Krajicek from the United States  and Mexico’s Santiago Gonzalez 2-6 6-3 10-4.

Venus and Bhambri’s previous three matches together had gone to super tiebreaks and they’d been defeated in all of them.

So this win will be a big confidence boost for the duo that came together after Wimbledon, with Venus splitting with his then partner Nikola Mektic. 

In this match, Venus and Bhambri stormed out to a 6-1 lead in the tiebreak and from there, they never looked like losing.
