Behind surfer Ramesh's bronze, a tale of resillience
FROM not qualifying for last year's Asian surfing meet to making history as the first Indian surfer to win a medal in an Asian meet, Ramesh Budihal has risen out of deep waters. On the coast, the Kerala-man has navigated the toughest of waves. It was a tougher challenge. He lost his father last year, in addition to the disappointment of qualification. On Sunday, Ramesh clinched bronze with a 12.60-point performance in the open men's final of the Asian Surfing Championship in Mahabalipuram. "My goal was to win gold. But I'm still proud to take the bronze. I am happy with the support from the team," he told this daily, a day after his performance. It took Ramesh three years to come to this stage and achieve this feat. "If we get more opportunities, we can put ourselves into higher performances and more medals," he added. In a way, this tournament was his last-chance saloon, and his give-it-all performance has earned him India's first medal in surfing at the continental event.

Swimming: The time of her life; Sharron Davies thrilled by 12-year-old's medal feat
Synopsis The pre-teen prodigy made headlines when she took bronze with her country's 4x200m freestyle relay team in Singapore last month. Davies swam for Britain at 11 and made her Olympic debut in Montreal in 1976. At 14, she twice won bronze at the European championships and by 15 was a double Commonwealth Games champion. AP Yu Zidi of China prepares to compete in the women's 200-meter butterfly final at the World Aquatics Championships in Singapore, July 31, 2025. LONDON: Sharron Davies will never forget the thrill of swimming at the Olympics as a 13-year-old and is sure Chinese sensation Yu Zidi will have felt similar excitement as the youngest world championships medallist at pre-teen prodigy made headlines when she took bronze with her country's 4x200m freestyle relay team in Singapore last month. Davies swam for Britain at 11 and made her Olympic debut in Montreal in 1976. At 14, she twice won bronze at the European championships and by 15 was a double Commonwealth Games some have raised questions about safeguarding, mental health, stress and the ethics of someone competing at elite level while still so young, Davies saw no reason to be concerned."I don't have any particular qualms," she told Reuters in a telephone interview. "It didn't traumatise me. In fact, when you're young, people presume that this is going to make you extremely nervous but in fact the opposite happens."You know that every time you get into the water you're going to swim faster, because you're just growing and getting better at 12 and you have the next 10 years in front of you."Davies compared that to the stress of being an older athlete in their last major meet and knowing that one final race, maybe only seconds in the pool, could be experience, she suggested, will have been very different."That 12-year-old thought this was just 'everything is a bonus, I'm just having the best time ever...' the pressure is not there," she said. "At 12, you just don't even think about that. You just think about how amazing it is to be part of this."Davies, who won 400m Individual Medley silver at the 1980 Moscow Olympics at a time when doped East German swimmers dominated the pool, said she was "on cloud nine" at making the Olympic squad."I just thought everything was amazing. I was just so lucky to be there and to experience it all and just to be part of it," she explained."There was nothing for me to lose and everything to gain. And it would have been the same for her (Yu)."Davies said age limits, with 14 the usual entry point for less elite performers, were meaningless when such an obvious talent came along."If someone is good enough to be there, how do you say 'Well, you can't come?'," she asked. "I think if someone is good enough, it'd be very unfair to take her moment away."God forbid something terrible happened to her and she tripped and broke her leg or something next year and it ruined her career. And she never had that opportunity when she was good enough."So I think it's a tough one to say she shouldn't have been there. It didn't mark me. It certainly didn't mark (diver) Tom Daley. From personal experience, the pressure comes later in life not early."Daley, the 2020 Olympic 10m synchro gold medallist, was 14 when he competed for Britain in the 2008 Olympics -- younger than Yu will be if she competes at the 2028 Los Angeles broke both her arms at 11 falling out of a tree and then resumed training in the pool with plaster casts wrapped in plastic bags. Much has changed in a more professional era."I think that we have a lot more medical attention now than we used to have," she said. "They understand rest breaks as well, whereas we just didn't get those. We were lucky if we got three weeks off a year."Nowadays they will say to some of the more senior athletes, 'go and take a year off, take six months off, go just be normal for a little while and come back hungry again'. None of those things happened back in my day, sadly."So I think we've learned a lot of lessons."

Risky move but wanted a different challenge: Pol Moreno
Pol Moreno replaced club captain Odei Onaindia at FC Goa Panaji: Pol Moreno is much-loved at Racing de Santander where he spent the last four years. With almost 100 games and nearly 7,000 minutes in a Racing shirt, it was no surprise that there was an outpouring of affection when news of the centre-back's decision to leave the club became official. Joining the Spanish second tier club, the player said, 'was probably the best sporting decision I've ever made in my life,' so imagine how hard it would have been to accept the offer from FC Goa and dive into Indian football. 'With my age, it might be a risky move given the situation I was in, but it's something that I wanted to do,' Moreno told TOI after a training session at Bambolim on Monday. 'My family and I were very keen to make this move, try and take on a different challenge. At Racing, I didn't get to play as much as I wanted. To come here and be able to do that is something I love. That's one of the principal reasons why I made the move.' Of course, it helped the 31-year-old defender that there's heavy Spanish influence at Goa. The coaching staff is Spanish, there are four other Spanish players in the team, including the likes of Javier Siverio, Borja Herrera and Iker Guarrotxena, who have spent enough time in India. But the one whose advice proved crucial is Edu Bedia , the former Goa midfielder and club legend. Edu, Racing Santander's youth product, is now in-charge of the Spanish club's international operations. 'He spoke wonderfully well about the atmosphere at FC Goa and the ISL in general . Obviously that provided me with some calm, knowing it comes from someone who spent six years here, with his family. Getting references (from others) about how well the club and country functions in terms of football, always makes a positive impact in ensuring there is peace of mind when you sign here,' said Moreno. At Goa, Moreno replaced club captain Odei Onaindia , someone who hardly put a foot wrong in the two years that he spent at the club. Whether on or off the field, the Spanish defender always led by example. Moreno is experienced enough to know what's expected of him. He's getting into the groove but admits he was taken aback when he first set foot on Indian soil. 'Given such a wide contrast between the culture and people in the two countries, it does take a little bit of time to adapt,' said Moreno. 'During the first couple of days, there was a little bit of shock seeing the amount of poverty that there was around, the demeanour of people and how they interact with you on a day-to-day basis. I've been here for a month now and able to adapt, understand people, and their customs. The more time I spend here, the more I enjoy it.' On the field, Moreno has been pleasantly surprised with the domestic players catching his eye during pre-season. 'It's a good level to work and then move forward. I think, as foreigners, we need to do more; not just the coaches but as players too. We are coming here not only to play but also pass on whatever we have learned (at a higher level) to the players and everyone around us,' said Moreno.
