With 42 Davis Cup doubles victories, he holds a world record, sharing the achievement with Nicola Pietrangeli—an extraordinary testament to his consistency and excellence.

Beyond Grand Slams and Olympic glory, Paes has made significant contributions to tennis globally. He earned recognition in World Team Tennis while playing for the Washington Kastles, where he was named Male MVP in 2009 and 2011. His commitment to nurturing tennis in India also earned him the role of Sports Ambassador of Haryana, demonstrating his impact beyond the court.

Leander Paes has been honoured with some of India’s highest awards, including the Padma Bhushan (2009), Padma Shri (2001), Arjuna Award (1996), and Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna (1996), acknowledging his stellar achievements and service to Indian sports.
