The Indian cueist clinched gold in men’s snooker at the Commonwealth Cue Sports Championships 2026 in Ahmedabad, defeating compatriot Dhvaj Haria 3–0 in the final on Saturday. But beyond the dominant scoreline, the victory carried a deeply personal significance. It was Aditya’s first gold medal since becoming a father, and a moment he had hoped to dedicate to his daughter, whom he affectionately calls his “Special One”.
