Rohan Bopanna and his Australian partner Matthew Ebden bowed out of the Wimbledon men’s doubles event after losing their second round match on Saturday.


The duo lost to unseeded German pair of Hendrick Jebens and Constantin Frantzen in straight sets 6-3, 7-6 (4) in just over an hour of play.


Bopanna and Ebden, who had won the Australian Open earlier this year, were behind early in the match after giving up a break in the first set. The break point proved crucial for the Germans as they went on to take the opening set.

In the second set, Jebens and Frantzen came out triumphant in the tie-breaker despite resilience from Bopanna and Ebden as the score was tied at five games apiece when rain interrupted play. The Germans came out all guns blazing to seal the tie-breaker after the resumption and took a hefty 4-1 lead.
