Reigning Olympic javelin champion Neeraj Chopra will be looking to retain his title at the 2024 Paris Olympics in the men’s final on Thursday.
Alongside him, the men’s hockey team will be hoping for a repeat result of their Tokyo 2020 bronze medal match when they take on Spain for the final spot on the podium.
After the heartbreak of Vinesh Phogat and disappointing ends for Antim Panghal and Nisha, Aman Sehrawat (men’s freestyle 57kg) and Anshu Malik (women’s 57kg) will be looking to give Indian wrestling some good results when they begin their campaigns.
Also on August 8, Jyothi Yarraji will have one more chance to qualify for the women’s 100m hurdles semi-finals while the women golfers Aditi Ashok and Diksha Dagar continue their charge towards the medals in Round 2.
