Mayookha Johny won Gold medal for long jump in the 19th Asian athletics championships. The talented long jumper conquered a tough field in rain, at 6.56 metres, to add to the joy of the Indian squad that had earlier in the day on Thursday witnessed Vikas Gowda take the silver in the discus event. She was aiming for 6.65 metres that would help her make it to the World championships in Daegu, Korea, next month as well as to the London Olympics next year. Fortunately winning the Asian title she was getting an automatic qualification to the World championships, with a mark that would be considered equivalent to the ‘A' standard (6.75m).

Thanks for referral Ms. Sujatha Srivastav,
Certainly a relief news in Sports. Lack of interest & enthusiasm put these field in the back-drop.

Thanks for sharing is valuable information, Ms. Sujatha. We pray Almighty that these Athletes do not face the same fate of other tainted athletes who tested positive in doping scandal, which has been recently unfolded.  Almost, over 265 athletes have tainted records in the past decade, which the Sports Ministry, SAI  and the IOA have been hiding the facts!
