Leander Paes remains the lone Indian hope at the French Open tennis tournament after Sania Mirza lost her doubles match at the Roland Garros in Paris, France, on Friday.

Paes and Nenad Zimonjic continued their sturdy march, steamrolling the French pair of Nicolas Devilder and Marc Gicquel 6-1, 6-3 to reach the men's doubles third round.

Sania's campaign, however, came to an end when she and her Russian partner, Anna Chakvetadze, were beaten 4-6, 7-4, 6-2 by 16th seeds Chinese Zi Yan and Jie Zhang.

The 18-year-old Indian had earlier lost in the singles first round.

Mahesh Bhupathi and Todd Woodbridge were upset in the first round by the United States' Kevin Kim and Hyung-Taik Lee of Korea on Thursday.
