 The Telegraph - Calcutta   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
An 18-month qualification campaign till April 31 this year saw three players — national women’s champion Aparna Popat, Abhinn Shyam Gupta and Nikhil Kanetkar — make it to the Athens Olympic Games and the writing on the wall is clear for the trio even before the start of the event.
Gupta, placed second in the waitlist, received a berth when a couple of players opted out while Kanetkar, who was fifth, received the invitation only when Canada decided not to send its two qualified players for the event, three days before the deadline for confirming the final participants.
Popat admits that it would not be easy at Olympics, but she is confident of a better show than her previous attempt, where inexperience and a three-month ban for taking an ubiquitous syrup for common cold played a big role in her early exit.
