Sutirtha Mukherjee Dedicates Achievement of Tokyo Games Qualification to Her Mother

News 18  

Sutirtha Mukherjee made it to her very first Olympics after she beat India’s top women’s singles player Manika Batra at the Asian Olympic Qualification tournament on Thursday night. Having been in Doha for a month, Sutirtha said staying away from her mother for so long was also really tough. “I was thinking of my chances of making the Olympics, it was a huge moment for me.” Sutirtha said that since she and Manika are in the same team, they are well aware of each other’s games so that was an advantage for her. I recently got a job with South-east Railways and if I get some financial help, I can train better.” Sutirtha said she would be looking to do a lot of work on her fitness ahead of the Olympics and lose some weight.
