From a fringe player to India’s big medal hope — the Prannoy journey Premium
The Hindu
From a fringe player to India’s big medal hope — the Prannoy journey. For someone who was talented and untiring, H.S. Prannoy remained a fringe player for too long before emerging out of the shadows of the lead performers. He is now India’s biggest medal hope at the World championships this year and next year’s Paris Olympics. At 31, Prannoy combines vast experience, skills and indefatigable attitude to put to shade even the younger opponents with his unbridled zeal and boyish enthusiasm to keep improving. He is in the form of his life and could shock the best at Copenhagen when the Worlds begin on August 21. In a chat with The Hindu, Prannoy shared his thoughts on the game and the goals ahead.
