Dipa Karmakar scripts history at the Gymnastics World Challenge Cup

Karmakar rose to prominence after becoming the first Indian gymnast to compete at the Olympics.

She had suffered an Anterior Cruciate Ligament injury after the Rio Olympics and had to undergo a surgery.

On her return, she delivered a phenomenal performance at the tournament.

She had topped qualifiers with a score of 13.400.

Today, she became the first Indian gold-medalist at the Challenge Cup.

Dipa was keen to make a comeback at the Commonwealth games, but she was excluded from India's squad.

However, she came back strong to win her first ever medal at the World Challenge Cup.

She even qualified for the balance beam finals by finishing third in the qualification round.

Dipa managed the score of 11.850 in the qualifiers.
