Paris Olympics 2024 Day 11: Neeraj Chopra, Sreejesh, and others competing
PTC News Desk: Tuesday, is Day 11 of the Paris Olympics, and it could be a significant day for the Indian team. Day 10 was extremely painful for India because medals were just missed by Lakshya Sen and Maheshwari Chauhan-Anantjeet Singh.
It was also upsetting to witness Nisha Dahiya sustain an unusual injury that would prevent her from winning Monday's 8–10 women's 68kg quarterfinal bout against Sol Gum Pak of North Korea at the Paris Olympics 2024. Avinash Sable's performance in the 3000m steeplechase on Monday, August 5, was encouraging.
He would go into the final having finished fifth. The attention now firmly turns to a few of the most well-known Indians, who want to make an announcement on Tuesday.
With that, let's take a look at the top athletes in action.
For certain celebrities, the mere mention of their name enthuses the audience. Neeraj Chopra, the Indian javelin thrower, will be attempting to defend his title at the Olympics on Tuesday, so that is the situation. Neeraj will be ready to participate in the qualifying round because he has been gradually preparing for the Olympics this year.
Never undervalue Kishore Jena, even though Neeraj is the more well-known name. The 28-year-old might be the Olympic dark horse, challenging Neeraj and other elite athletes for medals.
Because of what transpired off the wrestling mat, Vinesh Phogat's past few years have been extremely eventful. In order to advance all the way to the semi-finals in the Women's Freestyle 50 kg division on Tuesday, the Indian wrestler will now want to leave an impression.
PR Sreejesh has been a major member of the Indian men's hockey team, which has been dominating the Paris Olympics 2024. Even at 36 years old, the Indian goalkeeper never ceases to astound the supporters with his skills. In Tuesday's semi-final matchup between India and World Champions Germany, Sreejesh will be crucial for his team once more.
