He aggregated 7976 points in the gruelling 10-discipline event over two days, competing despite chronic patellar tendinitis (jumper’s knee), which led to him pulling out of the men’s high jump event earlier at the Glasgow Games.
A heartbroken Tejaswin was in tears after being forced to withdraw from the high jump following his opening attempt after the flare-up of the long-standing issue.
It was his second Commonwealth Games, having won the high jump bronze in the 2022 edition in Birmingham.
