Zorawar on becoming skipping master
When Zorawar
was 13 years old, he competed as a discus thrower. However, due to an accident,
while training, which caused a slipped disc in his lower back, Zorawar had to
quit the sport. Zorawar started learning skipping to maintain his physical
fitness and that got him interested in competitive jump rope.
Zorawar Singh through his hard work and dedication, won the
National Championships, and then went on to win the South Asian Championships.
In 2016, Zorawar Singh travelled to Portugal to compete in
the World Jump Rope Championships. After contracting an illness the day before
the competition, Zorawar ultimately finished in 4th place.
He was motivated to try Guinness World Records after seeing multiple titleholders at the World Championships in Portugal. He decided to dedicate his training to breaking Guinness World Records titles in the field of jump rope.
"There is no specific word that can describe a Guinness World Record Holder, as years of hard work & dedication [are] needed to make a record like this. Lots of sacrifices are being shown by the world record holders," Zorawar Singh was quoted as saying by the Guinness World Records on its website.
