The last 10 days have been a rollercoaster ride for Saurav Ghosal. The 35-year-old, who teamed up with Dipika Pallikal to pocket the mixed doubles gold at the World doubles squash championships in Glasgow on Saturday, could have given the event a miss due to injury.
In the lead up to the tournament, Saurav suffered a tear in his right adductor but still decided to give it a shot at the very last minute. “It was a Grade 1 tear. I wasn’t going to play the event initially but chose to go for it in the end,” Saurav told TOI.
