Indian long‑jump sensation Murali Sreeshankar secured gold at the Meeting Maia Cidade do Desporto in Maia, Portugal, on July 20, 2025. He soared to a winning distance of 7.75 m, outpacing rivals from Europe and beyond. This performance marks a significant comeback following his recent knee surgery, signaling his readiness ahead of the global season. Competing at a high‑calibre international meet, Sreeshankar demonstrated technical consistency and competitive sharpness. His winning leap not only earned him first place but also served as a morale booster as he eyes World Championships qualification later this year. (PC: The Hindu)
