Shehzad's victory added to Pakistan’s impressive overall performance at the championship, where the nation secured 14 medals, including 10 gold, 3 silver, and 1 bronze.

The championship, held from May 26 to 31 in Pattaya, Thailand, saw athletes competing on indoor rowing machines, such as the Concept2 ergometer, simulating the rowing experience in a controlled environment.

This remarkable achievement capped off a series of successes by Pakistani rowers, with Abdul Jabbar and Tayyab Iftikhar also contributing to the medal tally.

Shehzad’s win, however, stood out as a personal triumph, and he dedicated the victory to the Pakistan Armed Forces and the nation’s martyrs, further adding emotional depth to his achievement.
