Indian tennis ace Mahesh Bhupathi and Max Mirnyi of Belarus won the men's doubles title in the $665,000 ATP Tour event in Estoril, Portugal, defeating Lucas Arnold and Mariano Hood of Argentina 6-1, 6-2 in the final.
Saturday's win gave Bhupathi his 27th career title and the second in partnership with Mirnyi after the US Open triumph last year.
Incidentally, the Estoril crown is Bhupathi's first title since the US Open win.
Besides winning $25,300, Bhupathi and Miryni picked 35 ATP Race points, which should see them move up the doubles rankings from the abysmal position of 41.
