By   - 25/01/2020

In a surprising move, India’s one of the most accomplished Greco-Roman wrestler Gurpreet Singh has decided to give Asian Wrestling championship in Delhi a miss. Gurpreet recently won a gold medal at the season’s opening ranking series event in Rome in the 82kg category and was expected to start as favorite to win the Asian Championship medal as well for India. But now the Indian national champion in 77kg will skip the event. According to Gurpreet his entire focus currently is on the Asian Olympic qualifiers event in China in the month of March.
Speaking to WrestlingTV Gurpreet confirmed the news. “Yes, I am not participating in Asian championship in the Month of February. The only reason is because I don’t want to change my training schedule as the Asian Olympic qualifiers are very close. My aim right now is Asian qualifiers as I want to qualify for Tokyo and do well for the country. If i will participate in Asian C’ships it will effect in my training for the Asian qualifiers”.
It is worth noting that in the ranking series event in Rome as well Gurpreet decided to move up to 82kg category from his regular category of 77kg at the very last minute. According to info with WrestlingTV, Gurpreet currently is not ready to shed his weight and will reduce only right before the Asian Qualifiers to give himself best chance for the Olympic quota place.
