Right then, that about sums up all the action today. There wasn't too much on offer for the Indian contingent and once again, it's not been the best of days.
Aditi Ashok and Diksha Dagar completed their final day of golf today. While Aditi bettered her score but still couldn't reach par overall, Diksha Dagar's score pummelled down to a massive +13, which ended all hopes for both to win a medal.
As for wrestling, Reetika Hooda came out all guns blazing in her Round of 16 bout against Bernadett Nagy, winning on technical superiority, cruising into the quarterfinals.
She face first-seeded Aiperi Medet Kyzy in the quarterfinals and played a terrific bout, performing exceedingly well in defense. However, after one passivity point for each player, Reetika missed out as her opponent won the last technical point.
Reetika Hooda will now wait for the Kyzy's semifinal bout to know whether she will be in action tomorrow. A win for the World No. 1 will see Reetika play the repechage and possibly the bronze medal match tomorrow as well.
Right then, that's not all that we'll be seeing of the Indian contingent! At 12:30am IST tomorrow, the closing ceremony will take place where Manu Bhaker and PR Sreejesh will be proudly waving the Indian tricolour.
