WAPC 2025: All Eyes On Simran, Navdeep Ahead Of Final Day As Praveen Braves Hip Injury For High Jump Bronze
World Para Athletics Championships: The spotlight was well and truly on Praveen Kumar at the 2025 World Para Athletics Championships (WPAC) at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on Saturday evening. Praveen, who had brought the country glory multiple times in the past, came up with a superb performance on the penultimate day here on Saturday.
India needed just one more gold medal to achieve their best haul in terms of gold in the history of WPAC – they had won 6 gold in the Kobe WPAC. So, Praveen was the man of the moment.
He was the man with the shortest run-up in the men’s high jump T64. Before running in, he signalled to the enthusiastic crowd to quiet down so that he could focus better. He was a man on a mission to all intents and purposes. And he did very well for the large part of the event. But Uzbekistan’s Temurbek Giyazov flew away to the gold with a personal best of 2.03. Jonathan Broom-Edwards of Great Britain took silver at 2.00.
