Maana Patel, 21, on Friday became the third Indian swimmer to qualify for the Tokyo Olympics. She booked her berth through Universality quota, according to the Swimming Federation of India (SFI).
Patel will take part in the 100m backstroke at the Tokyo Games. Recently, Sajan Prakash and Srihari Nataraj made the `A` qualification cut for the Olympics.
According to a PTI report, the Universality quota allows one male and one female competitor from a country to participate in the Olympics, provided no other swimmer from the same gender qualifies for the Games or receives a FINA invite based on Olympic Selection time (B time).
