Two-time Asian Games gold medalist Tajinderpal Singh Toor will be in action at the 27th National Federation Senior Athletics Competition 2024 on Sunday, May 12. The 29-year-old athlete will compete in the Men's Shot Put qualifying round.
Tajinderpal has been in poor form of late, falling to cross the 20m mark in a couple of events this year. The Indian athlete returns to the Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar, where he set a new national record of 21.77m in June 2023.
Marking his return to the stadium after almost a year, the Asian Games champion will hope to breach the Olympic Qualification mark of at least 21.50m at the Nationals.
