Meet Tejaswin Shankar: The man who secured India's maiden CWG decathlon medal
Tejaswin Shankar made history at the 2026 Commonwealth Games (CWG) by clinching a bronze medal, marking India's first-ever podium finish in the decathlon. The 27-year-old athlete, who hails from a Tamil family in Delhi, faced personal tragedy early in life when he lost his father, Hari Shankar, to blood cancer. Beyond his recent success, Tejaswin has established himself as a dominant force in the high jump, holding titles as a three-time senior National Champion and a five-time junior National Champion.
