NEW YORK -- For Sania Mirza, the more things change, the more they stay the same.Twelve months ago at Flushing Meadows, Mirza was lifting her second of three consecutive major doubles titles with Martina Hingis.But the pair decided to go their separate ways last month, having won 14 titles in all since April 2015, with their recent results -- including a quarterfinal exit at Wimbledon -- falling below their lofty expectationsMirza immediately rediscovered her winning touch with titles in Cincinnati and Connecticut. The first of those triumphs came alongside Barbora Strycova, her partner here at the US Open, and they continued their excellent start together with a 6-3, 6-2 win over the all-American pairing of Ena Shibahara and Jada Myii Hart on Wednesday.The partner has changed, but I was No. 1 when I got here last year as well, Mirza, 29, told reporters. I was there for a while already. Its been a great year, I cant say that it hasnt. Its been an amazing last few years especially.Not a lot has changed in terms of tennis. Im still doing the same things, trying to achieve bigger and better things.She added with a laugh: Besides that, Im just older. The age has changed.All in all, it was a perfect day for Indias tennis stars here. Leander Paes and Hingis opened up in mixed doubles with a 6-3, 6-2 win over Sachia Vickery and Frances Tiafoe, while Rohan Bopanna and partner Frederik Loechte Nielsen saw off Radek Stepanek and Nenad Zimonjic 6-3, 6-7(3), 6-3 in the opening round of the mens doubles.But how Mirza would start Grand Slam life alongside Strycova was an intriguing detail -- they certainly had a hard act to follow.I didnt have to adjust my game too much. Barbora plays very similar to Martina in some ways, Mirza said, though. She volleys good, helps me at the net, its like the balance me and Martina had found. Thats the balance were trying to find.In Cincinnati it was great to win our first tournament we played together. We tried to understand each other. But weve known each other since we were 13. We played juniors, were exactly the same age.It helps to have that chemistry, that camaraderie, that mutual respect. Its great to understand how we react in tough moments, winning moments. Were playing well, it was a tricky match.Mirza recharged her batteries after she and Hingis exited Wimbledon earlier than expected, starting with a personal project that meant a great deal to her -- finally releasing her long-awaited autobiography, Ace Against Odds.It was good. It was a big three-city launch, she said. Weve had some very good responses to the book. You should read it!I think the book is something very special to me for many reasons. One of the most important reasons is that so much has been said and written about me over my 15 years in the limelight. I deserve to tell my story from my side, how I really feel.That was the whole thing of the book, it wasnt a business angle, just everything I felt. I owed it to my family, myself and also to my fans. Its important for them to know how I feel about a lot of things that have been said about me, some true and some not.Given the books success, could there be a follow up down the road?Thats a long shot, not that its on the cards. If I did happen to win three more slams then yeah, Mirza added, laughing.It was a really long process. It wasnt something written over a year. The process started six or seven years ago. Its not just bout tennis, its also about me as a person, how I picked up a tennis racket, how I got into it.It starts at me being four years old. We tried to do it three years ago, but so many things happened on the tennis court. We had to keep stalling, just adding, adding, adding. Its basically everything up until this French open.Mirza has also been buoyed by Indias Olympic experience in Rio. PV Sindhu became the first Indian woman to win an Olympic silver with her badminton medal, while Sakshi Malik became just the fourth Indian woman to win a medal overall at the Games with bronze in the 58kg wrestling category.Dipa Karmakars fourth-placed finish in the gymnastics vaults final was also a highlight.Weve always had good athletes from the country, said Mirza. Theyre very sparse in terms of the sports, but for us it was amazing to have a gymnast come fourth, even though we had the silver and the bronze. Amazingly we had all the women win the medals.But the gymnastics, we dont really represent in those kind of sports. It was unfortunate we couldnt win that medal, we came very close.It was a great experience. It was my third Olympics. I dont know what will happen in four years, but it was an amazing experience to be part of that contingent. Cheap Jerseys From China .
