'We have been living in US for the last 30 years. On Sunday, July 22nd, 2007, we decided to drive from Louisville, KY to watch Western & Southern Financial Group Women's Open Tennis Tournament in Cincinnati, OH. Our driving that far was worth as we watched Sania Mirza [Images] playing the doubles final and winning the championship,' writes Avinash.

'We witnessed some great shots played by Sania and were proud of seeing the Indian flag flying high in the stadium. Sania is not only a great tennis player but also a very modest individual. When requested, she readily agreed to have the attached picture taken with me. We wish all the best to her in the future.'

Thanks, Avinash, for sharing this picture!
