Indian tennis, a short history
India's men carry the deeper singles history. Vijay Amritraj sits top of the title list with 16 tour titles, and reached a career high of world number 18 in 1980. Before him, Ramanathan Krishnan reached the Wimbledon semifinals in 1960 and again in 1961, the furthest any Indian man has gone at a major. His son Ramesh Krishnan won 8 tour titles, and Leander Paes took singles bronze at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, India's first tennis medal.
On the women's side Sania Mirza stands alone. She was the first Indian woman to win a WTA singles title, at Hyderabad in 2005, and climbed to a career high of world number 27 in 2007, still the best singles ranking by any Indian. Nirupama Vasant also reached the main tour.
Titles and records run from 1968, the start of the Open era.
