After Rana’s demise, Oly medallist Manu forging new bonds with Serbian coach

Paris Olympics double medallist Manu Bhaker is showing a more flexible approach as she prepares for the 2028 Los Angeles Games.

After coach Jaspal Rana’s sudden death, Bhaker has adapted to Serbian coach Jelena Arunovic’s methods, spending over eight hours training daily.

Jelena says Bhaker’s openness to new ideas reflects her hunger to improve, with the 24-year-old focused on becoming better and more consistent.
