Ace shuttler PV Sindhu is aiming to win a gold medal for India in the upcoming Paris Olympics. She already won a silver medal at the Rio Olympics in 2016 and a bronze medal at Tokyo 2020. If she wins another medal in Paris, Sindhu will become the India’s first athlete to win three individual Olympic medals. Sindhu expressed her feelings with excitement and determination.
“That third medal in Paris definitely motivates me, and I am going all out to get that gold medal. For me, the Olympics are where I give my 200%. The journeys in 2016 and 2020 were wonderful, filled with immense effort and unforgettable moments. As I prepare for Paris 2024, it’s a fresh start, and I have to give my 100% no matter,” she said.
The star athlete also shared a few words about the Indian badminton legend Prakash Padukone, “This time, we have a whole new team with Prakash (Padukone) sir as my mentor and Agus (Dwi Santoso) as coach. Our practice is focused on getting everything perfect. It is my fortune that Prakash sir is my mentor and a part of my journey, and I hope his support can help me win that medal.”
Sindhu has past experience with the Olympics to boost her hopes of an Olympic gold medal. “There are a lot of experiences from my previous outings at the Olympics that I will take into Paris 2024, but I don’t want to get overconfident thinking about the medals. I hope I can fulfill the hopes of the nation and get the third medal because getting three consecutive medals is not a joke.”
