Hello and welcome to Sportskeeda's live coverage of Badminton Women's Singles Round of 32. Stay tuned for updates!

As Day 7 of the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games progresses, India will be looking to continue what has been a good run in the competition so far. Next event is Badminton Women's Singles Round of 32.

India will be represented by Ruthvika Gadde in her first match in this event and will be taking on Grace Atipaka of Ghana.

Ruthvika Gadde has already won a Gold medal in the competition as she was a part of the Mixed Team Event contingent which won the Gold medal. Ruthvika Gadde started playing badminton when she was just 5 years of age. The young 21-year-old still has a long way to go and the Commonwealth Games will be a great learning experience for her even if she does not win any more medals.

India continues to win medals in shooting on Day 7. India's Shreyasi Singh won a gold medal in the Women's Double Trap Finals & Ankur Mittal bagged a Bronze in the Men's Double Trap Finals. Om Mitharval also bagged a bronze medal in the Men's 50m Pistol Finals which happened earlier in the day.

India will be hoping Day 7 of the Commonwealth Games 2018 is just as successful as the previous days.
