Aman Sehrawat has advanced to the semi-finals of the 57 kg freestyle event at the Paris Olympics 2024. Following Vinesh Phogat’s disqualification, confidence in Indian wrestling has waned, but Aman’s potential success could provide a much-needed redemption for the sport in India. He is now the last hope for a wrestling medal, as all other Indian wrestlers have been eliminated.
Sehrawat reached the semi-finals in commanding fashion, shutting out his opponents in both matches. He first defeated Macedonian wrestler Vladimir Egorov 10-0 in the pre-quarterfinals and then stunned former world champion Zelimkhan Abakarov with a 12-0 victory in the quarterfinals.
When will Aman Sehrawat play semi-final?
The No. 6 ranked wrestler will compete in the semi-final of the men’s freestyle 57 kg category at 9:45 PM IST. If Aman Sehrawat wins his semi-final bout, he will secure a silver medal and advance to the gold medal match, scheduled for August 9 at 11:25 PM IST.
