YASHASWINI Ghorpade's career has been on an upwards trajectory. After conquering the junior level of table tennis, she has transitioned to the senior level. She won the senior nationals in Kangra, Himachal Pradesh last September before shining again in her hometown Bengaluru in December.
The landmark moment of her young career, however, came when she defeated the Chinese paddler, World No 35, Fan Siqi last week in the season six of the Ultimate Table Tennis (UTT) at EKA Arena in Ahmedabad. Donning the orange and black jersey of U Mumba TT, Yashaswini displayed mental fortitude, edging past the Chinese opponent, who represented Chennai Lions.
