Manika Batra won the ‘Breakthrough Table Tennis Star’ award at the prestigious International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF) Star Awards in Incheon, South Korea on Wednesday. Manika pretty much ruled the table tennis space in India this year with her stupendous performances at the Commonwealth Games and the Asian Games.
Manika said she was honoured to have received the award and deemed 2018 as the best year of her career so far.
“I am really honoured and happy to have received the award. I feel, 2018 has been the best year of my career so far and I am happy for what I have achieved,” Manika said at the ceremony.
“I would like to thank the Government, the Table Tennis Federation of India (TTFI) and most importantly, my family, who has been there for me and motivated me along this journey,” she added.
