World No.1 Pramod Bhagat made an impressive start to his campaign in the men’s singles badminton competition but young Palak Kohli endured a tough day at the Tokyo Paralympics, here on Wednesday. Pramod, the reigning World champion, outwitted fellow Indian Manoj Sarkar 21-10, 21-23, 21-9 in his men’s singles group A class SL3 opener that lasted 56 minutes. The 33-year-old, who had contracted polio during his childhood, will face Ukraine’s Oleksandr Chyrkov on Thursday. Manoj too will clash with Chyrkov on Friday.More Related News
