There’s a saying in English, “Successful people are not gifted, they just work hard then succeed on purpose.” Odisha’s Pramod Bhagat is a living example of that! Suffering from polio since the age of 4, he started playing badminton in the year 2002.
World ranked-1 Indian shuttler Pramod Bhagat defeats Daniel Bethell of England by 6-21, 21-14, 21-5 to retain the coveted title in record 51 minutes.
BWF which is responsible for regulating, promoting and developing para-badminton globally also promotes a “one sport – one team” philosophy for badminton and para-badminton together.
hat’s more exciting that just a couple of hours before winning the Gold medal in singles, Pramod wins another Gold medal for India in the men’s doubles event with Manoj Sarkar as a partner.
