Sharath Gayakwad has created history by winning 6 medals at the Para Incheon Asian Games 2014 and breaks track and field legend PT Usha's 28 year record at Asian Games.

“Four years ago at the 2010 Guangzhou Asian Para Games, I won a bronze medal. This year, I won five more. To be honest, I was only expecting three,“ said Gayakwad, who suffers from a dysfunctional left short arm.

Sharath began his campaign by winning a silver medal in the 200m Individual Medley event. He followed it up by winning bronze medals in 100m butterfly, 100m breaststroke, 100m backstroke, and the 50m freestyle.

A major role in helping him think past retirement was Rahul Dravid. The former Indian captain spoke to Gayakwad prior to his departure and mentored him on how to overcome pressure situations.
