Early Life
Rinku Singh Rajput was born on August 8, 1988, in Gopiganj, Uttar Pradesh, India. He belongs to a poor family and did not have a very easy childhood. Growing up, he liked playing cricket and throwing javelin, even becoming a junior national javelin medalist.
The Million Dollar Arm
In 2008, Rajput took part in a television show The Million Dollar Arm. The contest was created by J.B. Bernstein and Ash Vasudevan who sought to bring out the best baseball players in India, a country known for its passion for cricket, a sport similar to Baseball. Out of 37,000 contestants who participated, it was Rinku who won the show, earning a grand prize of US$ 100,000 and a ticket to the USA alongside the show's runner-up Dinesh Patel.
