Sports Dunk

On Monday November 2 , World Athletics announced the nominees for male world Athlete 2020.
Congratulated to all those 10 nominees first. But here we all have to think that there's no Indian who even became the nominees. So where are we lacking ?
In my opinion biggest hurdles come from the people who are responsible for helping the athletes. The mail problems are the Indian parents who thinks getting 90% score is the only way to brighten the future and that is why they discourage the kids to be an sports person. then there's one more problem that is Athletes do not receive financial support from the government when it is truly needed . There is a lot of example where we have seen sports person are begging for the help to get a financial support. And most importantly the problem is in sports management. Sports governing bodies in India face issues like Corruption, Nepotism, Selection in trials based on Recommendation and not Performance, etc. There have always been reports of sports authoritarian using funds meant for development of sports for taking abroad tours with their families. Sports governing bodies operate quiet unprofessionally as people in charge usually does not belong to sports background creating a barrier in understanding the needs of sports person, directly leading to the hampering of growth of that sport.
So , in India there's is a lot talent and hopes but for that dream to become the best and the athletes should get the support from there patents and the governing body too think about them then definitely one day India will lead.
Indian athelete needs our support , they need respect and recognition , they needs help to give it back to the country. So" let's Support together ".

P.V. SINDHU -

PV Sindhu was born on July 5, 1995, in Hyderabad, Andhra Pradeshthe is the first Indian to win a Badminton World Championships gold on August 25, 2019. She beat Nozomi Okuhara of Japan in a lop-sided final held in Switzerland.
She always credited her parents, P. Vijaya and P. V. Ramana, for her success. Both of her parents were former volleyball player. On her mothers she gifted the best thing a mother can ever have , on that she won the gold medal .
Shindhu had the first of her victories during the all-India under-10 singles held in Kochi in June 2005. She won the all-India junior major ranking badminton tournament in Hyderabad in November 2008.
Under the guidance of Pullela Gopichand, she won her first Grand Prix gold in the Malaysian Open in May 2013. One of the peculiarities about PV Sindhu’s career graph is her steady improvement at annual events year-by-year. This was first apparent at the 2012 Asian Junior Championships when she won the gold medal after scoring a bronze the year prior.
This pattern was repeated at the prestigious World Championships too. After two bronze and two silver medals between 2013 and 2018, she finally held the yellow metal in 2019 after comprehensively beating Japan’s Nozomi Okuhara 21-7, 21-7, and garnering Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s praise.
In her first Commonwealth Games (CWG) in 2014, PV Sindhu won bronze in women’s singles. Four years later, at the 2018 CWG in Gold Coast, she followed it up with a silver and a gold medal in the singles and mixed team badminton event respectively.
P.V. Sindhu has also awarded the Padma Shri award in 2015. She is also honored with with Padma Bhushan Award, the third-highest civilian award in India, in January 2020, Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna Award, the highest sporting honour of India, on 29 August 2016 , Bestowed with Arjuna Award for badminton on 24 September 2013 .
She won a silver medal in the Rio Olympics in 2016 becoming the first Indian to reach a badminton singles final at the Olympics. Her winning a BWF World Tour Finals medal, did not lessen the criticism of losing two World Championship finals in 2018 and early 2019.But she left audiences and her critics speechless with her historic win in the Badminton World Championship in 2019.
Today she nearly gave her fans, admirers and well-wishers a ‘mini heart-attack’ with her latest Twitter Post saying ‘Denmark Open was the final straw, I retire’.She announced her retirement with the words –
“Today, I chose to retire from this current state of unrest. I retire from this negativity, the constant fear, uncertainty. I chose to retire from a complete lack of the unknown.
I just want to end this note by saying that although she retired from the field but she can never take retirement from our heart .

Argentina Squeeze Past Bolivia, Ecuador Hammer Uruguay In World Cup Qualifier.

Joaquin Correa scored the winner 11 minutes from time as Argentina labored to a 2-1 victory over Bolivia in a World Cup qualifier in La Paz on Tuesday. It was a second narrow victory in a row for Lionel Scaloni's team following Thursday's 1-0 win over Ecuador. Marcelo Moreno Martins had given hosts Bolivia a deserved lead but Argentina scored a fortuitous equaliser through Lautaro Martinez. Elsewhere, Ecuador bounced back from their loss in Argentina to stun Uruguay 4-2 in Quito.

Bolivia should have been ahead on six minutes when Argentina goalkeeper Franco Armani was caught off his line but Moreno Martins sent his header from an angle onto the roof of the net.

Moreno Martins made amends on 24 minutes as he rose between Argentina's center-backs to power home a header from eight yards after Alejandro Chumacero was allowed to run from halfway into the visitors' box before crossing from the left. While the Estadio Hernando Siles was empty due to coronavirus restrictions, some fans standing on a nearby roof overlooking the ground celebrated enthusiastically.

Rafael Nadal's French Open Record Will Never Be Beaten, Predicts Andy Murray.

Rafael Nadal, 34, demolished Novak Djokovic in the final at Roland Garros to win his 13th French Open title, an achievement that Andy Murray feels no one will even get close to in Paris.
Andy Murray predicts Rafael Nadal's record of 13 French Open titles will never be beaten as the British former world number one looks to bounce back in Cologne this week from his own Roland Garros disappointment. Murray, 33, the reigning Olympic champion, crashed out of last month's French Open in straight sets with a lop-sided first round defeat to Stan Wawrinka as he works his way back from hip surgery. On Sunday, the Scot watched in awe as Nadal, 34, demolished Novak Djokovic 6-0, 6-2, 7-5 in the final at Roland Garros to win his 13th French Open title.

Novak Djokovic was blown off the court by Rafael Nadal in a French Open final humiliation!!!

Nadal won an astonishing 13th Roland Garros title to equal Roger Federer’s all-time record of 20 Grand Slams, inflicting a fourth French Open final defeat on Djokovic.

The Serb, a 2016 champion in Paris, was denied in his bid to become the first man in half a century to win all four Slams twice as he lost 6-0, 6-2, 7-5 in his 56th meeting with Nadal.

“Defeats like this are never really enjoyable, but in the greatest of defeats you learn the greatest lessons as a tennis player, but as a person as well,” said Djokovic.
