Mr. Ahmed, its not only about what Aisam has achieved as a tennis player. It is about how he carries himself as a Pakistani on world stage. What he says, where he comes from, the journey he had to make it there. The resources that Bryan Brothers or Nadal, Federer etc. get is no way comparable to what Aisam received while he was learning his trade. Yet he was able to succeed to a certain level, against a lot of odds.

We should not just look where he ended up, we should also look where he started his journey, and how he got there.

I see your point but dont completely agree with you. Tennis doubles is very popular in both US & Europe. It requires strategy and team work to do well in doubles. All great tennis players of the past (McEnroe, Connors, Edberg, Wilander, Becker et al) have played doubles & mixed doubles tennis and have won accolades.

This is an achievement (not great) for Pakistan Tennis since someone has grabbed media attention for Pakistan in a positive way. Unfortunately, very few good things are being reported for the country. I hope Aisam does even better than this!
