Chennai: In a few days with the Federation Cup, several high-profile athletes did not push themselves into the Indian Open here on Tuesday. Some incidents were seen in the Indian Open, while others were married to injuries.
Jesvin Aldrin, who first competed for the first time after the Paris Olympics, managed only one valid attempt and finished seventh in the men’s long jump with the best attempt of 7.36 meters.

The national-record holder was unable to adjust the heat quickly. Aditya Singh, the up-and-up athlete, topped the 7.74 meters with the best jump. He was the only Indian athlete to cross the 8 meter mark last year and started this season on a bright note.
Aditya said, “I was not happy with the way I ran into the runway. My view was better, I could jump close to my best, even crossed the Asian Championship Mark (8.07 m).” The 23 -year -old Aditya, who started his career as a long jumper in 2016, returned to the event after a brief time with sprinting in 2022.
