Embora ninguém espere uma medalha na piscina da Índia, um certo Dhinidhi Desinghu, de 14 anos, representará o país nas Olimpíadas de Paris.
It takes years and years of relentless practice to master a sport. Making it to the Olympics and representing the country is a different ball game altogether. But it seems like it’s not all that difficult for 14-year-old Indian swimmer Dhinidhi Desinghu, who would be setting the pool to fire at Paris Olympics 2024.
At an age where kids her age usually dabble in different sports, Dhinidhi is already a sensation, and also a national record holder in the women’s 200m freestyle category. And not just that, she managed to win seven gold medals at the National Games 2023, in Goa last year. All that just oozes immense talent this young Bengaluru girl has.
