Rithvik Choudary prepares for Grand Slam debut at Australian Open

Rithvik Choudary Bollipalli, 23, is set to make his Grand Slam debut at the Australian Open, partnering with American Ryan Seggerman. This follows a successful 2024, where he won his first ATP doubles title and three Challenger events. Rithvik's original plan to team up with Arjun Kadhe was disrupted due to Kadhe's knee injury. He expressed the challenge of adapting to different partners, having recently played with Dutch veteran Robin Haase in Brisbane. Looking ahead, Rithvik is also excited about competing in the Davis Cup against Togo in New Delhi. He feels honored to represent India alongside familiar teammates and reflects on his journey from junior competitions to the national team.
