Every-time we Indians sit down to analyse yet our dismal
showing in the Olympics, we conclude by saying that Indians lack the “killer
instinct”. Why else do our athletes “choke” in tight situations? Why else are
they never able to put in that final race-winning effort?
But could an athlete who has fought an apathetic sports
system, limited access to professional coaching, lack of equipment and
nutrition, to make it to the world stage, have done it if they were mentally
fragile?
It is their spirit that’s got them this far. What they lack
is the tool-box of a champion.
