Manav Thakkar (Table Tennis)
Manav finished runners-up earlier this year at the Serbian Junior and Cadet Open, thus taking him to the top spot in ITTF World Junior Circuit standings in October.
The 17-year-old made a name for himself when he claimed a gold in the singles category, and gold and silver in the doubles category as well in the Slovenia Junior and Cadet Open.
The gold in the singles event in Belgrade also ensured a place for Thakkar at the ITTF World Junior Circuit Finals, which would be held in Luxembourg.
