New Delhi: On the way to recovery from an injury, double Olympic medallist Sushil Kumar is getting ready to train in the USA before returning for the Pro Wrestling League, which he feels would give the country's grapplers a "good exposure" ahead of next year's Rio Olympics.

The Indian team will be going to Las Vegas in September for the World Championships, which will also be the first qualifying tournament for the Rio Games. Although Sushil had opted out of the all-important championship after suffering a shoulder injury last month, he revealed that the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) has decided to send him also to USA for training.
