'I'm Taking It As Motivation', Says Para-athlete Sandeep To PM Modi On His Third Successive 4th-place Finish
Iranian Beit Sayah Sadegh: Indian para-athlete Sandeep Chaudhary, who finished in fourth place for the third time in a row in as many Games, is unfazed about missing the podium in his third appearance at the Paralympics Games and has taken it as motivation for himself as well as for other athletes for the next edition of the mega sporting spectacle in 2028 in Los Angeles.
Speaking about his third consecutive fourth-place finish, when Prime Minister hosted the Paris Paralymians at his residence on Thursday, Sandeep said he will be the first one to motivate others with his successive fourth-place finish, as it will encourage other athletes, who missed out on a medal in their first attempt, to keep doing hard work until you achieve the success.
"I finished fourth in Rio (2016), Tokyo (2020), and now in Paris (2024) as well... It feels like the number four has a special connection with me. But I’m taking this fourth place as motivation because the next Paralympics will be my fourth Games," he said to PM as the room erupts with laughter.
