Paris Olympics Schedule, Day 15: All eyes on Reetika Hooda as India want 7th medal

With Olympic day 15 approaching, it will be a new sunrise for Indian athletes, who are witnessing several heartbreaking moments. For them, it is now or never.

As the Paris Olympics enters its penultimate day, India’s hopes for a seventh medal rest solely on the shoulders of wrestler Reetika Hooda. On the other hand, the Indian contingent saw a further setback in golf, with both Diksha Dagar and Aditi Ashok slipping out of contention after a poor third round on Friday (August 9). This leaves Reetika as the lone warrior for India on Day 15.

Reetika Hooda – India’s hope at Olympics

The 76kg freestyle category will be the stage for Reetika’s medal hunt. Scheduled to start her campaign in the round of 16 at 3:00 PM IST, the wrestler will have to navigate her way through the tough competition to reach the final. A victory in the round of 16 will propel her to the quarterfinals at 4:20 PM, with a potential semi-final clash scheduled for 10:25 PM.

With the nation’s hopes pinned on her, Reetika carries the immense pressure of delivering a medal. Her performance will be keenly watched by millions of Indians as they eagerly await a positive outcome to end the Olympics on a high note.
