Sania has won many major tennis titles through her career including the Wimbledon, French Open, US Open and Australian Open. She was recently also ranked number one in the World Doubles ranking. She has been regarded as one of the finest sporting personalities that the country has ever produced.

Like every sportsperson, she has had her own share of ups and downs. However, every time injuries have laid her down, she managed to raise her game and continue to achieve even more success. Pursuing her hobby of playing tennis since an early age of six, Sania has been an inspiration to a whole generation as she continues to shine in the international circuit.

Malik, on the other hand, has had a fairly successful second half of his career and would be hoping to take it to the peak before calling it time on his celebrated career with Pakistan.
