 In February 1948 X qualified for the Olympics by winning the
  National triple jump title astounding everyone with a national
  record of 50 feet 2 inches (15.29 metres) at the All-India meet in
  Lucknow.
 Then at the olympics, X made what he called his "two big
  mistakes."
 "I was just 19-and-a-half and inexperienced. I should have insisted
  on some time for warming up. That was my first mistake — not to
  warm-up. My second was to go flat out on my first jump. We had a
  total of six and I should have taken things easy at the start."
 The result was both sad and predictable. "I approached the take
  off board at considerable speed. I got my take off foot on the
  board and started to take off for the first phase of the triple jump
  — the hop. Then, suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my right
  hamstring muscle and heard a sort of `thwack' like the snapping of
  a bowstring. My right hamstring muscle had ruptured. I was
  thrown off balance completely and landed with a tumble in the
  pit." Identify X?

I should have insisted on some time for warming up. That was my first mistake — not to warm-up. My second was to go flat out on my first jump. We had a total of six and I should have taken things easy at the start."  The result was both sad and predictable. "I approached the take off board at considerable speed. I got my take off foot on the board and started to take off for the first phase of the triple jump — the hop. Then, suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my right hamstring muscle and heard a sort of `thwack' like the snapping of a bowstring. My right hamstring muscle had ruptured. I was thrown off balance completely and landed with a tumble in the pit." Identify X?
