Olympics Day 9: Lakshya Sen Eyes Semi-Finals, India in Hockey Quarters

India is gearing up for a significant day at the Paris Olympics on Sunday, August 4, following the recent heartbreaks of shooters Manu Bhaker and boxer Nishant Dev. The nation’s hopes now rest on shuttler Lakshya Sen and boxer Lovlina Borgohain, who both have crucial matches that could secure medals.

Lakshya Sen will face the defending champion in the men’s singles quarter-finals of badminton. A win would not only advance him to the semi-finals but also assure him of a medal. In boxing, Lovlina Borgohain will take on China’s Li Qian in her quarter-final bout, with a victory guaranteeing her a medal as well.

The day will commence with two shooting events and golf, where India will aim to qualify for the finals. In particular, Raiza Dhillon and Maheshwari Chouhan will compete in the women’s skeet event, with the potential for a medal run if they reach the final scheduled for 7 PM IST.

As the last standing representatives in their respective categories, both Lakshya and Lovlina face challenging matches but possess the skill and determination to upset their formidable opponents. India’s fans will be closely watching as these athletes strive to bring home glory from the Paris Olympics.
