‘Either Seven Metres Or A Gold Medal Is What I Want’: Ancy Sojan Ahead Of Asiad
Ancy Sojan Edappilly: Indian long jumper Ancy Sojan Edappilly has set herself two defining targets ahead of the Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya, becoming the country’s first woman to breach seven metres and winning gold in the long jump, after her national-record 6.88m effort brought her within 12cm of the landmark distance.
“Either seven metres or a gold medal - this is what I want,” Ancy told Olympics.com.
The 25-year-old has already moved beyond one of the biggest benchmarks in Indian women’s long jump. Her 6.88m leap earlier this year erased Anju Bobby George’s national record of 6.83m, which had stood for 22 years.
