The 14th day of the Paris 2024 Olympics will get underway shortly. A majority of the Indian athletes have ended their campaigns. Last night in Paris, javelin throw star Neeraj Chopra became the first Indian to win a silver medal at the ongoing edition of the mega event.
With Neeraj's silver and hockey team's bronze, India's medal tally now stands at five. Another medal could be added to the total tonight if Aman Sehrawat beats Darian Cruz in the bronze medal match of men's wrestling 57 kg.
Aman looked quite impressive yesterday. He beat Vladimir Egorov by 10-0 in the Round of 16, followed by a 12-0 win against Zelimkhan Abakarov in the quarterfinals. However, in the semifinals, Japan's Rei Higuchi squashed him by 10-0.
Since Aman lost in the semifinal, he received a direct entry to the bronze medal match, which will happen tonight at 11.10 pm IST. Apart from wrestling, Indian fans will also hope for positive results in athletics. India's men's and women's 4x400m relay teams will be in action today. The golf tournament will continue as well.
Here is the complete schedule for India on Day 14 of the Paris 2024 Olympics:
