India at 2024 Olympics, Day 6 as it happened: Kusale wins bronze; Nikhat, Sindhu, Satwik-Chirag exit

That’s it for Scroll’s coverage of Day 6 of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.

The day started well with Swapnil Kusale winning a bronze medal in the men’s 50m 3 position rifle event. But proceedings quickly took a turn for the worst.

Pravin Jadhav lost in archery, Nikhat Zareen lost in boxing, Satwisairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty lost their men’s doubles quarter-final match, and PV Sindhu lost in the Round of 16.

There was disappointment in the women’s 50m 3 positions rifle event, and even a loss in men’s hockey to Belgium.

Still, a lot of action to come in this Olympic Games.

Join us once again tomorrow for live action from Paris 2024.

We have to accept that HBJ was better than Sindhu today.

But we must not forget what a legend Sindhu has been for Indian Sport. 2 Olympic medals and 5 World Championship medals. Given all of us fans so much joy over the years ????????????????#olympics #Paris2024 #Badminton— Viren Rasquinha (@virenrasquinha) August 1, 2024

Golf, men's individual Round 1: Shubhankar Sharma finishes the first day of the competition tied in 29th place, with a total score of 70 (in golf, the lower score is the better score). Gaganjeet Bhullar meanwhile is in tied 56th place with 75 points.
