Indian tennis star Sania Mirza will undergo surgery on her injured knee if her current treatment does not respond well, her father said here on Monday.Sania's father Imran Mirza told reporters here that she was presently undergoing a course of injections with the hope that she responds to the treatment and does not need a surgery.
"We will know in a week's time whether the injections treatment has worked if they don't work than Sania has to have another surgery and we will fly back to India for that," Imran said.Sania and her family are presently in the city on a private visit as her husband Shoaib Malik is playing in the National T20 Championship at the National Stadium.
Deepika kumari misses gold by whisker
It was heartbreak for India's Deepika Kumari as she missed out on a gold medal in a shoot-off at the World Cup Final in Istanbul on Sunday.The Jharkhand teenager needed a perfect 10 to seal victory in the individual recurve section final, but managed only an eight as China's Cheng Ming took home the honours.
Deepika was the only Indian in the two-day elite event for which only the top seven in each category qualified and were joined by a wild card.The final got off to a rousing start with both archers registering two perfect 10s each on their first two attempts. Cheng then made a nine with Deepika replying with an eight. As a result, the opening set went to the Chinese.
Cheng also seemed in charge of the second set when she started with a 10 and a nine, and Deepika managing only two eights.However, the Chinese girl faltered and shot a mere six. The Indian capitalised on the opportunity and hit a perfect 10 to take the set 26- 25 and square the final.
