Yash Vir Singh wins CWG javelin bronze after seven-month shoulder injury recovery
Indian javelin thrower Yash Vir Singh claimed a bronze medal at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, largely unheralded before the competition. His medal-winning throw was also a personal best, marking a significant milestone in his athletic career. The achievement came after a gruelling seven-month rehabilitation period following shoulder surgery that had threatened to derail his career. Singh has credited his father as a guiding force since his early days training with a bamboo javelin. He also revealed that fellow javelin star Neeraj Chopra offered encouraging words before his decisive final throw.
