KIYG 2023: Assam’s Pahi Applies Her Tezpur Lake Lessons To Win The Chennai Pool
Khelo India Youth Games: Far from the glittering waters of an Olympic-size pool, Pahi Borah learned swimming in a lake and had to use makeshift bamboo arrangements to dive and somersault. But the talent and passion of the 14-year-old from Tezpur, Assam, has carried her seamlessly from a lake to the pool.
At the 6th Khelo India Youth Games in Chennai on Sunday, Pahi added the 200m breaststroke gold medal to the 100m breaststroke silver she had won a day ago.
Egged on by coach Partha Pratim Majumder from the sidelines, Pahi ended up shaving around three seconds from her previous personal best to clock 2:41.32 seconds in the 200m backstroke final.
