🎾 Who Was Radhika Yadav? Rising Indian Tennis Star Shot Dead by Her Father

Radhika Yadav, a young and talented Indian tennis player, was tragically shot dead by her own father in a shocking case that has stunned the entire nation. The incident took place on July 10, 2025, at their residence in Gurugram's Sector 57.

👧 Radhika Yadav’s Tennis Career

Born on March 23, 2000, Radhika Yadav was a rising tennis player who had made her mark in state-level tournaments. She represented Haryana and reached a career-high ranking of 113 in ITF Women’s Doubles by November 2024. She was among the top 5 female tennis players from Haryana, known for her discipline and fast progress.

💔 What Happened on July 10?

According to Gurugram police, her father, Deepak Yadav, allegedly shot her five times, with three bullets hitting her fatally. The incident took place around 11:30 AM in their home at Sushant Lok Phase II.

Radhika was rushed to a private hospital where she was declared dead. Deepak was arrested on the spot, and a licensed .32-bore revolver was recovered.

📱 Alleged Motive: Instagram Reels

Initial investigation suggests that the father was reportedly angry over Radhika’s social media presence, especially her frequent Instagram Reels. Police say the father had previously warned her to stop uploading videos, which he believed were damaging the family's reputation.

The case is being investigated as a suspected honour killing. Police are examining mental health history, CCTV footage, and social media activity for further clues.

🗣️ Community in Shock

The Indian tennis community and people across the country are mourning the tragic loss of a promising athlete. Coaches and fellow players have expressed grief and disbelief, calling it a brutal reminder of the dangers of suppressed violence and family conflict.

Her friends and teammates remembered her as a humble, hardworking, and cheerful personality with a bright future in Indian tennis.

📢 Final Thoughts

Radhika Yadav’s tragic death exposes the urgent need for mental health awareness, open communication in families, and safety for women—even within their own homes. Her story must not be forgotten, and may it inspire better protection for young, ambitious girls chasing their dreams.

🕊️ May Radhika’s soul rest in peace.
