Rohan Bopanna recently won his first tennis Grand Slam title. Now this statement may not be a big deal standalone, but Bopanna achieved this at the age of 43 years and 329 days!
Easy on the body? Nope. Easy on the mind? Absolutely not!
Imagine having played 100s and 100s of matches during all the so-called “prime” years of youth and not winning a grand slam at all. And yet, he persisted.

And of course, he switched his mindset to being super positive.
As he quipped, “I’m not 43, I’m at level 43!”
