With many of the Paris Olympics athletes opting out, the spotlight is on the next generation of Indian track and field stars. Among them are some prominent names, including national record holder Tejas Shirse in the men’s 110m hurdles, Animesh Kujur in the men’s 200m, and Rosy Meena Paulraj in the women’s pole vault. These athletes are expected to deliver standout performances as they aim to establish themselves as the future of Indian athletics.
For the U23 athletes, this tournament is excellent preparation for the U23 nationals next month. Additionally, with the junior nationals approaching in November, it's a great opportunity for young athletes to gain competitive experience. Bengaluru is an excellent venue, offering a fast track and good facilities for throwing events."
Among the athletes to watch, Tejas Shirse stands out, having set a national record earlier this season with a time of 13.41 seconds in the men’s 110m hurdles at the Motonet GP in Finland. Shirse will be aiming to maintain his form and achieve the qualifying time for next year’s World Championships. Another athlete to keep an eye on is Animesh Kujur, a sprinter who has shown remarkable promise in the 200m and will be looking to continue his momentum in Bengaluru.
In the field events, javelin throwers Sahil Silwal and Vikrant Malik are expected to be strong contenders for podium finishes. Silwal, who faced challenges last year, made a powerful comeback with an 81.81m throw to secure gold at the Senior Inter-State Athletics meet in June. His performance in this championship will be crucial as he seeks to build on his recent success.
As the National Open Athletics Championships 2024 unfolds, stay tuned for live updates, athlete performances, and all the action from Bengaluru. This event promises to be a showcase of emerging talent, providing a glimpse into the future of Indian athletics.
