Paes-Black lose in Wimbeldon mixed doubles final
Top seeds Leander Paes and his Zimbabwean partner Cara Black lost in the final of Wimbeldon mixed doubles here Sunday.
The ninth seeds Bahamian Mark Knowles and his German partner Anna-Lena Groenefeld stunned everyone as they hit back from 5-2 down in the first set to win eight games in a row and earn a 7-5, 6-3 victory over title favourites.
The Indo-Zimbabwean duo have not met much success following their US Open victory. They lost in the second round of both the Australian and the French Opens. Paes was just a match from his 10th career Grand Slam.
This is the fourth major title and first Wimbeldon for Knowles and the first major trophy for Groenfeld.
