More often than not, Bengaluru-based tennis star Rohan Bopanna is on tour. And every time he returns, he finds his city has changed. So much so that he often drives around just to get a hang of how much.

The landscape behind him may be changing, but Bopanna’s focus remains centred–defending his French Open mixed-doubles title.

Amid all the training and practice though, Bopanna finds his stress buster in the form of social media. At a time when social media and privacy concerns are at the forefront, he bats for the former.

With an active and often updated online presence, the tennis ace says that it is his way of blowing off some steam. “I love posting on social media. Many times my managers tell me that they will do it for me instead, but I like doing it myself. I don’t stress about it so much, and instead use it to destress,” he says.
