Tokyo bronze medallist Lovlina Borgohain will open her Paris Olympics campaign on Day 5 (July 31) as action heats up at the quadrennial event. The star Indian boxer, who is eyeing a second consecutive podium finish, takes on junior world champion Sunniva Hofstad from Norway in an exciting contest.
Besides, Indian shuttlers will continue to feature in round-robin action as PV Sindhu, Lakshya Sen, and HS Prannoy look to bolster their standing in hopes of a favorable draw in the knock-out rounds.
Manika Batra, who has already made history by becoming the first Indian paddler to enter the last-18 at the Olympics, will be looking to seal her quarterfinal spot. Young gun Sreeja Akula, meanwhile, is also set to play her second-round match as she hopes to move into the last-16.
Elsewhere, shooters will look to strengthen the prospect of another medal at the Olympics from the Chateauroux Shooting Centre as qualification rounds for the men’s 50m Rifle 3 Positions will be held.
Speaking of shooting, Indian archers Tarundeep Rai and Deepika Kumari will also be in action in the Individual competitions. Both are slated to play their Round of 64 opponents and, if qualified, the Round of 32 encounter as well.
