London [UK], July 8 (ANI): India's campaign at Wimbledon 2025 ended as the men's doubles pair of Yuki Bhambri and Robert Galloway crashed out of the ongoing Wimbledon 2025 tennis tournament after losing their pre-quarterfinals encounter at the All England Club in London on Sunday.
Up against fourth seeds Marcel Granollers of Spain and Horacio Zeballos of Argentina, Yuki Bhambri and Robert Galloway, seeded 16th, put up a fight but eventually went down 6-4, 3-6, 7(10)-6(4) in two hours and nine minutes, as per Olympics.com.
The Spanish-Argentine pair took the opening set 6-4 after securing an early break against Bhambri and Galloway.
Bhambri and Galloway bounced back in the second set. After trading early holds, they broke their fourth-seeded opponents twice in quick succession to draw level.
The final set saw Granollers and Zeballos surge to a 5-2 lead, but Bhambri and Galloway won three games on the trot to level at 5-5. Both teams held serve to force a super tiebreak.
Granollers and Zeballos raced to a 7-0 lead in the tiebreaker. Although Bhambri and Galloway tried to pull off a late comeback, the gap proved too wide to bridge.
