New Delhi: Aman Sehrawat clinched a bronze medal, India’s first in wrestling at the Paris Olympics.
Dominating his 57 kg freestyle bout against Puerto Rico’s Darian Cruz from start to finish, the 21-year-old Aman won 13-5.
It was a stunning victory for the Olympic debutant from Haryana’s Jhajjar district, especially after the mega disappointment faced by finalist Vinesh Phogat.
Watch the winning moment in the video shared by Union minister Kiren Rijiju on X:
