I had the privilege of knowing Leander during my days at Dubai Duty Free, then after we moved to Canada 12 years ago, I heard he was in town to play the Rogers Cup. My son who was all of 10 years, wanted to meet this "someone famous" whom I claimed to know. I sent a text to Leander, half not expecting him to respond but within a short while he not only responded but he also had tickets waiting for me at the box office. After the game I took my family to meet him and he got talking to Matt (my son) where Matt told him about how I always spoke about Leander being a popular and famous Indian sports personality and how all of us were proud of him. To which Leander responded in the most humble manner " Your dad who works hard to take care of you, now that's what I call a real hero." I salute you Mr. Paes, you ooze class on the court and definitely off it too.

I'm bangladeshi and see Leander as one of the top 5 best Indian sportsperson in the world. He's very achieved in tennis but not that great. If the titles were singles rather than doubles than maybe he would be the greatest, but doubles is not as well regarded as singles. He's good and all but the standards of sachin and likes of Dhoni is much higher than that of Leander, even if tennis is a more global sport. Popularity wise he stands no chance lol

He has done so much for the country, but the two of them had the potential of getting multiple medals for India. They were such legends together. But they had to throw it all away. Why, Leander, Why? I don't think India's going to get such a tennis duo (especially after understanding the economics of individual sports in India) in a long long long time.
