Glasgow CWG: Entering Competition With A Winning Mindset, Says Quarter-miler Vishal TK On His Debut
Vishal Thennarasu Kayalvizhi: The first Indian to go under 45 seconds in 400m, Vishal Thennarasu Kayalvizhi (Vishal TK) is looking to add a cherry on top of a magical season by winning a medal on his Commonwealth Games debut in Glasgow. The Indian quarter-miler heads into the CWG on the back of a historic season that has firmly established him as one of the country's premier sprint talents.
The 22-year-old Vishal made history earlier this year by becoming the first Indian man to break the 45-second barrier in the 400m, clocking 44.98 seconds to set the current Indian National Record in the event. A four-time National Champion, Vishal has rapidly emerged as one of Asia's leading quarter-milers and will step onto the track at Glasgow riding on the confidence gained from a breakthrough campaign.
His remarkable rise has also been underlined by success on the continental stage. Vishal played a pivotal role in India's relay teams winning gold in the mixed 4x400m relay and silver in the men's 4x400m relay at the Asian Athletics Championships.
