India’s Complete Schedule: August 3, 2024, Paris Olympics Medal Events:
India’s hopes for additional medals and perhaps more history being written by Manu Bhaker are high for the country’s day at the 2024 Olympics in Paris. The two-time Olympian from Paris 2024 is going all out to make history as the first Indian athlete to earn three medals in one Olympics by competing in the women’s 25m pistol final. When Deepika Kumari and Bhajan Kaur compete in the women’s solo Round of 16, they hope to build on their recent success in archery. And if Nishant Dev prevails in his Men’s 71kg Boxing quarterfinal, we might also have another medal confirmed early on Sunday morning.
At the Paris 2024 Olympics, Manu Bhaker, who has already made history for India, has a chance to win her third medal. She qualified for the 25-meter sports piston event on Friday by placing second in the qualification round.
On Saturday, boxer Nishant Dev will also have the opportunity to verify a medal. He may go to the semifinals and secure a medal if he defeats Marco Verde of Mexico in his quarterfinal round.

Heartbreak also followed when Dhiraj Bommadevara and Ankita Bhakat overcame unsatisfactory results in the individual and team competitions to secure India’s best-ever finish at an Olympic Games. In the mixed team archery competition, the two placed fourth.

If Toor commits another foul throw, his Olympic career in Paris comes to an end. The Asian Games champion has a poor performance as he only manages a best throw of 18.05 meters, placing him 29th out of 31 competitors. Leonardo Fabbri of Italy throws past the qualifying standard alongside Crouser, Stanek, Otterdahl, Walsh, and Jacko.
