PATIALA: Shot putters Abha Khatua and Tajinderpal Singh Toor grabbed the spotlight in the inaugural National Open Throws Competition as the athletics season kicked off on Sunday.
The 26-year-old Abha Khatua, who gave up heptathlon to focus on one event, became only the third Indian woman shot putter to breach the 17m mark when she claimed gold with a 17.09m effort.
