Manika Batra: India's best paddler, Manika Batra says she feels ‘very proud’ after breaking into the top 25 and achieving a career-best ranking just months before the Olympic Games. Batra on Tuesday achieved a new career-high ranking of World No. 24 in the latest ITTF Rankings. Manika jumped 15 places from No. 39 to become world No. 24. Moreover, she reclaimed her India No. 1 place from Sreeja Akula.

The 25-year-old paddler has become the first Indian woman to break into the top 25 singles rankings. She also matched the world No. 24 ranking achieved by Sathiyan Gnanasekaran (currently world no. 65) in 2019, which is the highest rank attained by an Indian in singles.

“It is indeed a very proud moment for me. To break into the top 25 and achieve my career-best ranking just months before the Olympic Games is definitely a very potent boost to my preparations,” said Manika Batra.
