BANGALORE: Sania Mirza hasn't had the best of starts to the 2010 season - on and off court. A broken service game is one thing, but a broken or a broken heart, is quite another.
Earlier in the week, the 23-year-old's father Imran, who coaches Sania and manages her career, called off his daughter's engagement to Mohammed Sohrab Mirza. Sania was formally engaged to the fellow Hyderabadi and longtime friend, now studying business in the United Kingdom, at a luxury hotel near her home last July.
The Indian star categorically refused to get into the why and what of the matter, but confirmed her engagement was off. "We were friends for half a decade, but found ourselves incompatible during our engagement period. I wish Sohrab the best in life," she said.
Even before the two got engaged, questions were doing the rounds about whether Mohammed could cope with the demands of being life-partner to a widely-travelled, hugely-popular athlete. Sania, who has been struggling with the differences for the last couple of months, hasn't taken the break-up well as her results on court show. However, she's doing what she always does at a time of crisis - surround herself with family and friends.
As it stands, Sania will have to turn her focus to the courts, and in time might find comfort there. She flies out to Kuala Lumpur late on Friday, where she leads India's challenge in the Fed Cup Asia Oceania Group II competition, starting February 2.

If rumors are to be believed, compatibility is not the reason for Sania Mirza and Sohrab engagement break up but Mahesh Bhupati. It is widely believed that Sania Mirza spend most of her time with Mahesh Bhupati for professional reason and has very little time for Sohrab. Out of 52 weeks in a year, Sania mirza is out on tennis tour for more than 40 weeks with Mahesh Bhupati. It is believed that relation between Mahesh Bhupati and Sania Mirza grew more than professional relation. Both were seen spending time with each other after the game also.
The Mahesh Bhupati factor gets more interesting as mahesh has divorced his wife 6 months back only. Sania Mirza and Mahesh Bhupati has friends for long time. In fact Sania listens to Mahesh Bupati more than to anyone else. Sania Mirza also won mixed double grand slam titles with Mahesh Bhupati only.
When there were controversies between Leander Paes and Mahesh Bhupti for mixed double partners, Sania Mirza preferred Mahesh Bhupati. Sania Mirza also practices in tennis academy owned by Mahesh Bhupati in Bangalore.
