<p>Former world number one Martina Hingis says the future of her partnership with India's top player Sania Mirza would depend on the results they get on the WTA circuit.<br /><br /></p>.<p>Sania split with Chinese Taipei's Hsieh after playing only four tournaments together this season.<br /><br />Hingis said since the two of them play different styles of game, it should suit them.<br /><br />"Sania and I can be competitive as a pair because our style of tennis is completely different. Sania is good from the forehand side and I am known to have a really good backhand. I am looking forward to playing with Sania for next couple of months but decision to continue with her will depend upon the kind of results we get as a pair," Martina told PTI.<br /><br />Hingis had recently won the Australian Open mixed doubles title with India's doubles veteran Leander Paes.<br /><br />Talking about Paes, Hingis said, "Two of us compliment each other very well and that is why we were able to win the Grand Slam together."<br /><br />"I played with Leander for couple of seasons in the US which gave me a lot of comfort. The best quality of Leander is that he makes the woman partner safe and protected. He covers for the void created when I am not serving well. Women's nature is as such she always wants to be felt protected, either in a relationship or while playing a match."<br /><br />Talking about Champion Tennis League, Hingis said,"It is a great way to promote tennis in India. The awesome part of CTL is helping young players. I was very happy to play here."<br /><br />Hingis also that CTL helped her establish great bond and rapport with Indian players.<br /><br />"Of course, I had a great bonding with Indian players. We trained together. Like every time we played a match at the end of the week we are almost go like 'Oh miss you'," she said.<br /><br />Hingis said Playing in CTL feels "almost like playing in Davis Cup where people also are charged up to support their players."<br /><br />Talking about her recent meeting with India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Hingis said it centred around sport.<br /><br />"He is a very busy man. We considered ourselves to be lucky that the Prime Minister had time for us. The Prime Minister asked us - me and Leander - to keep up good work. Leander is a great ambassador for India. He wished all the best for the future," she said.<br /><br />Hingis ruled out plying singles again."It is nice to know people wishing me to play singles. I think it is too demanding for my body to play at that level," she said.<br /><br />Hingis she is in India not only for tennis but also for spending some good time in the country by visiting different cities like Mumbai and Bengaluru. </p>
