Just days after becoming the first Indian to win the World Junior Squash Championship title, 18-year-old Anahat Singh has put a pause on her academic plans to pursue her ultimate Olympic dreams. Singh, in her fifth and final attempt, won the junior world championship in Canada on July 25, a feat that ended 16 years of Egyptian dominance. Singh had originally planned to follow in the footsteps of her elder sister, Amira, and pursue higher education at Harvard this year. But after clinching the world junior title in her fifth and final attempt, she believes this is the right time to prioritise her sporting career. For years, Anahat balanced international tournaments with school, spending much of her childhood travelling from one competition to another.
