Athletes Shine at National Open Athletics Championships with Records and Comebacks
At the 65th National Open Athletics Championships, Asha Ilango won the triple jump gold with a meet record of 13.89m, overcoming recent Asian Games disappointment where she narrowly missed a bronze. Meanwhile, Manikanta Hoblidhar returned from injury to lead the 100m heats, and Vikrant Panchal posted the fastest 400m time. The event also featured notable absences and highlighted Abhishek Pal's participation amid ongoing doping proceedings. These performances reflect athletes' resilience and competitive spirit at the national level.
