Shuttler Suhas Yathiraj bagged yet another gold for Bharat
in the ongoing 4th Asian Para Games in the badminton men’s Singles SL4 final on
Friday.
Following Pramod Bhagat’s success, Suhas produced an
exceptional performance on the court with a remarkable comeback victory.
While facing Malaysia’s Burhanuddin Mohd Amin, Suhas
struggled to secure points in the first set. Amin looked comfortable and played
each shot with composure. He went on to clinch the first set 21-13.
But in the next two sets, Suhas shifted gears to
clinch them to claim a 2-1 victory. Unlike the first set, it was Suhas who made
Amin work hard for each point and took away the second set 21-18. In the
deciding set, he completely swept away the Malaysian shuttler to clinch a 21-9
victory.
Meanwhile, in archery, Rakesh Kumar secured a silver
in the men’s Individual Compound Archery event. It was a closely fought
encounter between Rakesh and Iran’s Alisina Manshaezadeh but the Indian failed
to emerge victorious at the end of the event.
