Dalwinder Singh 20yrs old Indian has reached the finals of the ITF F3  India tournament and would meet Vishnu in the finals...If he wins he would be in top 800 a jump from 1600 start of this year. If he looses too he would in top 1050. A new face for the future of tennis.

Hope Indian singles tennis takes off with the young kids moving up...

Hope Sumit Nagal(18) and Ramkumar(21) support and move up with the established Yuki(23) and Saketh(28)....

With Sudha getting good timing I would think she would not be part of Marathon....Hope in another 80 days she gets 3-4 seconds off and would be in top 10 in Olympics.....

I agree completely and what a great result ...this is the 5th time in 2 years that the 3000 SC for women Indian national record has been broken and this  would create the need in babar to better it .....so expect her to really go ahead.......This is an awesome result for indian atheletics

Avtar Singh looses in the 1st Round of the IJF World Judo Tour- Almaty leg.... not much points gained. A bad news for the ranking.
