Jyothi Yerraji of Telangana, who broke the women’s 100m hurdles National record multiple times and is a medal prospect in the forthcoming Asian Games, is a level-headed and determined athlete despite all the success she has achieved, Dr. Aashish Contractor, Director, Rehabilitation and Sports Medicine, Sir H.N. Reliance Foundation Hospital in Mumbai, said.

“Athletes have to be perfect, literally, in every discipline to be a winner at the highest level and a lot depends on nutrition and strength - both mental and physical,” said Dr. Aashish, who interacts with many big names in Indian sport, including Jyothi.
