Sreeshankar sustains knee injury, out of Oly

Long-jumper M Sreeshankar is out of the Paris Olympics. The 25-year-old athlete had been training for the season at Palakkad and was expected to leave for China to compete in the Suzhou Diamond League, the first of many competitions he was planning to enter this season. His ultimate goal was the Paris Olympics, for which he had qualified last year.

The Asian Games silver-medallist had been training very hard for the Olympics and was feeling great as well. Until Tuesday morning, he and his father and coach, S Murali, were chalking out plans for the season. By evening, things had changed during routine training. After Suzhou DL, they were supposed to head to Doha DL and was thinking of a training stint abroad. And they were even targeting the senior interstate nationals as well.
