Four more Indians taste success at the Uzbekistan Open
Srihari Nataraj came agonisingly close to becoming the first Indian swimmer ever to achieve the A-mark Olympic Qualifying Time, before falling short by 0.22s in men’s 100m backstroke event at the Uzbekistan Open swimming championships on Thursday. The 20-year-old’s timing of 54.07s in the final was enough to secure him the gold medal, but insufficient to meet the Tokyo 2020 Games A-mark (53.85s).
