:clap::IND

Seema Antil Punia, a 32-year old discus thrower from Haryana, qualified for the upcoming Olympics in Rio de Janiero by winning gold at the Young Thrower's Classic in California on Sunday.

Punia threw a distance of 62.62 metres, which was ahead of the Olympic qualification mark of 61 metres. It was also enough to beat her opponent Stephanie Brown Trafton, who win silver with a throw of 60.50 metres.

she had recently done 60.80 so was definitely  expected to reach the qualification but after many recent disappointments in athletics with the Olympic qualification recently it was great to receive this news

Great news from the French Open!

After a hard fought victory in the mixed doubles yesterday, 16th seeds Paes and Matkowski won their third round men's doubles match against the 4th seeds and current Australian Open champions Jamie Murray and Bruno Soares 7-6(5), 7-6(4) in a hard fought match lasting 1hr and 41 mins. From whatever I saw of the match, Paes seemed to be in good nick and was easily the best player on court. With this victory they now enter the quarterfinals and surely Paes' ranking should increase.

6th seeds Bopanna and Mergea also entered the quarterfinals in 3 sets 6-2, 6-7(4), 6-1 against the unseeded duo Baker-Daniell. Bopanna would next be in action in some time in the 2nd round of the mixed doubles against the 1st seeds Jamie Murray and Hao-Ching Chan.

 

Sania Mirza is also scheduled to play today in the women's doubles 3rd round.

Mahesh Bhupathi shaping the career of 2 young and future of Indian Tennis 17-year-old Karman Kaur Thandi and 18 year Sumit Nagal.

Karman made headlines in last year’s junior US Open when she reached the pre-quarters, following it up with a similar showing in the Australian Open.

Sumit Nagal, who has just graduated to the seniors, became the sixth Indian junior to triumph at junior Wimbledon last year.

The common link between the two --- they are both backed by Mahesh Bhupathi.

Karman is ranked 645 in the WTA chart while Nagal is 388 on the ATP list.

 

Well done Mahesh keep helping to produce superb talents for the country...

    • One of the best-ever Women's Relays this afternoon in Ruhpolding.  Unfortunately stuck away on a midweek afternoon so not many people will have seen it.  Must watch though.  No spoilers yet!
    • The IOC is very TV ratings and ticket sale focused when it comes to sports to add / drop, seemingly. Which is probably not the best metric to use, but it does explain why alpine snowboarding is in more trouble than something like aerials or ski half-pipe (which should probably be closer to the chopping block if we go by competitive depth).
    • Thursday January 15th, 2026 - Round-Robin Day 3 Schedule (GMT +1)   13:00   Japan vs France 16:30   Denmark vs Norway 20:00   Italy vs Germany
    • all races are shown on public tv in places like Italy, Austria and streamed all around the Continent on the Discovery+/HBO Max popularity, instead, is another story... except maybe in Austria, tv ratings are marginal and the athletes are basically unknown, like in all the non-mainstream sports (which means, here in Italy, football, ferrari and -the newcomer in the last few years- Sinner, who replaced Valentino Rossi in this very poor list)   ps at least, there are quite a few kids practicing the sport in our mountain villages
    • Finally got in as well after about an hour-ish in line.
    • Nobody in the US watches it is the problem the IOC has. That and it's kinda dead as a grassroots sport - I ski and I've only seen one Alpine board in my entire life. It was displayed in a store as a curiosity and it was *old*. Much easier to participate in snowboardcross at a recrational level.   I don't think it should be removed, but Alpine snowboarding has a perception problem as a dead sport, at least outside of Europe (I don't have a good sense of how often Alpine snowboarding is shown on TV in Europe and how popular those broadcasts are).
    • Got in and registered, though they put me in two separate queues.  Hoping to get into the early Southern California purchase slot, though it seems nothing is certain.
