India grappler Narsingh Yadav’s coach Jagmal Singh has revealed that his ward has no intention of hanging up his boots despite failing to qualify for the Tokyo Olympics after returning from a four-year doping ban. 

“Narsingh is disappointed that he could not qualify for Tokyo but that does not mean he will be quitting the sport. No Indian wrestler has qualified for Tokyo from the 74kg and that’s sad. But Narsingh has proved his worth by winning a bronze medal in the 79kg category at the Asian Championships in Kazakhstan in April.
