The international jumper representing the Air Force got his rhythm right in his third attempt to take home the gold medal with a distance of 16.83m. His opening jump was 16.05m, and he recorded a jump of 16.57m in his second attempt. However, he didn\u2019t attempt the last three jumps. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Praveen Chithravel settled for silver with a jump of 16.78m in the season-opening competition. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Away from the triple jump arena, the army\u2019s international jumper, Sarvesh Anil Kushare, was the clear winner in the men\u2019s high jump. He cleared 2.16m on his third attempt to win gold. However, he failed to clear 2.19m. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>It was a nail-biting contest in the men\u2019s pole vault. Training partners Dev Meena and Kuldeep Kumar aimed to raise the bar and improve the national record of 5.40m, which was set last year by Dev Meena. Both fell short of the national record, clearing 5.25m.
