Indo-Romanian tennis pair of Rohan Bopanna and Florin Mergea were ousted from the men's doubles second round at the $3.5 million Canadian Open being played on the outdoor hard courts of Uniprix Stadium here.

The scratch Serbian combination of Novak Djokovic and Janko Tipsarevic accounted for fourth seeds Bopanna and Mergea to win 6-3, 5-7, 10-3 in an hour and 27 minutes on Wednesday.

After sharing the first two sets, it all boiled down to the super tie-break where the Serbian combine proved much better, advancing to the quarterfinals.
