India's teenaged table tennis player Diya Chitale, 19, didn't let her cold and cough (due to weather change and travel) affect her as she went on to win two gold medals at the Khelo India Youth Games in Panchkula, Haryana recently. In the U-18 singles final, she beat Delhi's Lakshita Narang 4-3 (9-11, 11-6, 10-12, 11-3, 9-11, 11-4, 11-7) 4-3.

Meanwhile, in the girls doubles final, the duo of Chitale and Swastika Ghosh defeated Haryana’s Suhana Saini and Prithoki Chakraborti 14-12, 11-9, 11-6. Last month, Chitale won gold in the U-19 girls’ singles event of the WTT Youth Contender in Lima, Peru.
