Okay, this is brilliant from Harvinder. He’s 4-0 up in the final of the Paris Paralympics!! Ciszek started off the next set with a 9, while the Indian also responded with the same. Both archers again hit the 9s. But the turning point came when Harvinder responded with a perfect ten to Ciszek’s 9 to take the lead. Sheer brilliance.
And it's gold for the Indian! To add to the success, it's a 6-0 sweep. What a day for Indian archery, and what an athlete Harvinder Singh is!! Take a bow. 29-25 in the set. Stunning!
Harvinder was the first Indian archer to win a Paralympic or an Olympic medal in Tokyo. He now becomes the first Indian archer to win a Paralympic or an Olympic gold medal in Paris. An absolute superstar who has just inspired a nation.
