Mirabai Chanu has lifted 88kg in her third and final attempt in snatch. This is a superb effort from the Indian weighlifter as she moves to the top spot with this lift.

Mirabai Chanu has failed to lift 88kg in her second attempt in snatch. This means her best snatch so far remains 86kg. She is set to go ahead with the same weight in her third and final attempt in snatch.

Mirabai Chanu is set to lift 88kg in her second attempt now. Earlier, Chanu had set 86kg for her second attempt but she has gone two kgs above than that in her attempt. If she manages to do it, it will take her to a really good position as the best lifted so far is 86.

Thai weightlifter Surodchana Khambao has lifted 86kg in her first attempt. This is the highest lifted so far in the ongoing snatch event.

Mirabai Chanu has started with an 85kg lift in the snatch. This is a great start for the Tokyo Olympics silver medallist.

America's Jourdan Delacruz has lifted 84kg in her first attempt and Dominica's Beatriz Piron has lifted 85kg. And now it's time for Mirabai Chanu. She will attempt for 85kg.

The snatch round has begun. Guam's Nicola Lagatao has lifted 56kg in her first attempt. Mirabai Chanu is set to lift 85 in her first attempt. She will be in action soon.

Before the final begins, here is a brief to how it will take place. Each of the 12 athletes will get a total of six opportunities - 3 in snatch and as many in jerk. The one who picks best combined in two will win the final.

One could spot India's Mirabai Chanu now also warming up with other players. She is doing some exercise at the moment to free her body.

Chinese weightlifter Hou Zhihui and Thailand's Surodchana Khambao could be seen warming up with the rest of the ten competitors ahead of the final event in the 49kg category.

Mirabai Chanu, who opened India's tally on the first day of the competition at the Tokyo Olympics with a sparkling silver, has kept a low profile since suffering hip tendonitis during the Asian Games last October. Chanu has endured a rather underwhelming Olympic cycle thanks to injury and workload management. Her best effort since Tokyo came at the 2022 Commonwealth Games where she lifted 201kg (88kg+113kg). She had won the silver in Tokyo by heaving 202kg (87kg+115kg).

"It's part of the game," a brave Vinesh Phogat told the Indian coaches who met her after her shock disqualification from the Paris Olympics for weighing 100g more than the permissible limit in the women's 50kg category on Wednesday.

Away from the spotlight owing to an injury-plagued buildup, Mirabai Chanu will be in spolight when she attempts to become India's first weightlifter to win two Olympic medals but a challenging field and lingering fitness concerns stand in the way.

After the disappointments in wrestling, table tennis and athletics, the focus now shift towards weightlifting with Tokyo silver medallist Saikhom Mirabai Chanu in action later in the day. She will compete in Women's 49kg event at 11 PM IST.

Aditi Ashok finishes her first round at the 2024 Paris Olympics with a score of Even Par. Bogeys at 17th and 18th hole brought all the advantage down. She now sits Tied 11th. Meanwhile, Diksha Dagar drops from Tied 3rd to Tied 7th after a bogey in her final shot. Good start, but not so good ending for the both the golfer. Still plenty left to play in the last 3 rounds.

Poland take gold and bronze as Aleksandra Miroslaw and Aleksandra Kalucka finishing first and third respectively in women's speed event. 

Diksha Dagar cards her second birdie to get to 2 under for the day and is looking impressive. She is now Tied 3rd. Aditi Ashok has fallen behind after an impressive start.

Weightlifter Saikhom Mirabai Chanu will be in focus later in the day when she attempts to become India's first weightlifter to win two Olympic medals. Mirabai Chanu opened India's tally on the first day of the competition at the Tokyo Olympics. However, there is a lack of buzz this time as she recently recovered from hip tendonitis.

Alanna Smith scored 22 points and pulled down 13 rebounds to lead Australia to a convincing 85-67 victory over Serbia and into the Olympic women's basketball semi-finals. They will face the winners of the quarterfinal between USA and Nigeria.

Aditi Ashok is now Tied 1st after 14 holes. This is some high level of golf from the Hagzhou Asian Games silver medallist. Diksha Dagar Tied 7th. Remember, this is only Round 1. We will have three more rounds during the course of the next three days.

Vinesh Phogat's uncle, Mahavir Singh Phogat, expressed his disappointment after the wrestler's disqualification. Mahavir said if a wrestler is overweight by 50-100 grams, they are usually allowed to play.

"I have nothing to say. The entire country has expected Gold...Rules are there but if a wrestler is 50-100 grammes overweight, they are usually allowed to play. I will ask the people of the country not to despair, one day she will bring a medal for sure...I'll prepare her for the next Olympics," Mahavir Singh Phogat said while speaking to ANI.

Aditi Ashok is Tied 3rd in Women's Individual Stroke Play Round 1 golf event. A solid start from the Asian games silver medallist. Still plenty of work to be done as we are at just 12 holes. Meanwhile, Diksha Dagar is currently Tied 9th. 

After the disappointments in athletics, wrestling and table tennis, three more Indian atheletes will be in action later today. Abdullah Naranglontevida and Praveen Chithravel will be in Men's Triple Jump qualification round. Later in the day, weightlifter Mirabai Chanu will begin her campaign in women's 49kg event. She won the silver in Tokyo

India's Antim Panghal loses her Women's 53kg freestyle wrestling last 16 bout to Turkey's Yetgil Zeynep. She will now hope to compete for the bronze medal via repechage, if Zeynep reaches the final.

What a brilliant performance by Archana Kamath to claim the third match against Xiaona Shan. She keeps India's hopes alives. We are going to the 4th match where Sreeja Akula will be in singles action.

Meanwhile, wrestler Antim Panghal will be in action soon in Women's 53kg event. She will take on Turkey's Zeynep Yetgil in the Round of 16.

Archana Kamath has managed to put up an unbelieveable rearguard. This is a do or die match for India and the youngster is giving her all against Germany's Xiaona Shan. However, she trails in the fourth game.

After a thrilling fight in the first game, India paddler Archana Kamath fails to clinch another victory as she loses the second game against Germany's Shan Xiaona with a scoreline of 1-11. Later in the third game, Kamath makes a good comeback and clinches it the round with a scoreline of 11-5. 

As India trail 0-2 in the quarterfinals against Germany, paddler Archana Kamath brings some new hope. In the first game of Match No 3, Archana keeps on fighting till the very end and clinches a memorable win against Germany's Shan Xiaona. The scoreline of the first game is 19-17. 

IN the second and third attempt, India's Annu Rani registers distance of 53.22 in her second attempt, followed by 53.55 in the third and final attempt. She has been placed 15th in the rankings. 

Meanwhile in athletics, India's Annu Rani makes her first attempt in women's javelin throw qualification round. In the first attempt, she covers  a distance of 55.81m. She is quite far from the Qualification Standard, i.e. 62.00. 

Tough time for Team India as their star paddler Manika Batra loses her singles match against Germany's Annett Kaufmann. Despite taking a brilliant 1-0 lead in the first game of Match No 2, Batra fails to capitalize and ends up losing the rest of the three games. The quarterfinals scoreline is 0-2 in the facour of Germany and they need just one more match to enter the semis-finals. 

After losing the first game in Match No 2, German paddler Annett Kaufmann makes a good comeback and dominates India's Manika Batra. In the next two games, she easily dominates Batra as he registers a scoreline of 11-5, 11-7, in the second and third game respectively. Match No 2 is currently led by Germany with 2-1 scoreline. 

Meanwhile in athletics, it's a heartbreak for India as athlete Jyothi Yarraji fails to reach the final of women's 100m hurdles race. In Round 1 Heat 4, Yarraji finishes at seventh place. Her time was 13.16 while her reaction time was 0.168. 

After a defeat in Match No 1, the Indian camp takes a sigh of relief as their star paddler Manika Batra comes to the rescue. In Match No 2, which is a women's singles round, Batra brilliantly edge past Germany's Annett Kaufmann with a scoreline of 11-8. What a brilliant performance. 

Despite putting up a great fight, the Indian paddlers Sreeja Akula and Archana Kamath failed to clinch the first match against the German duo. In the fourth game, Yuan Wan and Shan Xiaona had a dominating outing, clinching a victory 11-6. The first match of the quarterfinals has been won by Germany with a scoreline of 3-1. 

After making a brilliant comeback in the second game, Sreeja Akula and Archana Kamath lost the 3rd game against Germany. It was a tough fight from both the ends but Yuan Wan and Shan Xiaona had the last laugh. The scoreline of third game was 10-12 in the favour of Germany as the Match No 1 is also lead by Germany 2-1. 

WHAT A COMEBACK!!!! After trailing 0-1 in the first game, Indian paddlers Sreeja Akula and Archana Kamath hold their nerves and bounce back in style to clinch the second game. The second games shows a different side of Team India as the paddlers were much confident. They claimed the second game with a scoreline of 11-8. The first match is currently levelled 1-1. 

In the first game of Match No 1, India face a heartbreak as Sreeja Akula and Archana Kamath's hard word goes in vain. In a thrilling round, the Indian paddlers show a great fight but Germany's Yuan Wan and Shan Xiaona brilliantly snatch the game from the Indians. The scoreline read 11-5 in the favour of Germany. 

The table tennis women's team quarterfinals between India and Germany begins. The first match 1, featuring Sreeja Akula and Archana Kamath of India is going up and down. In Game 1, the India paddlers are putting up a great fight against Germany. 

All the Indian fans are eagerly waiting to see the women's table tennis team in action. The likes of Manika Batra, Sreeja Akula, and Archana Kamath will be takin Germany in the women's team quarterfinal match. Stay tuned.

Vinesh, you are a champion among champions! You are India's pride and an inspiration for each and every Indian.
Today's setback hurts. I wish words could express the sense of despair that I am experiencing.
At the same time, I know that you epitomise resilience. It has always…

Vinesh was eligible to compete on Day 1 after she made the weight. However, as per the rules, a wrestler must meet the weight limit on both the days. As a result, Vinesh won't be eligible for even a silver, and the 50kg event will only have a gold and two bronze medals. Read more. 

Meanwhile, Golf women's individual final has begun. From India, Aditi Ashok and Diksha Dagar will be in action. Stay tuned for all the live updates.

Indian wrestler Vinesh Phogat, who was supposed to be in action later today in the gold medal match of women's 50kg event, has been disqualified by the IOA as she was a few grams overweight. This is a tragic news for India and Vinesh as the wrestler was gunning for a gold medal.

Some golf action coming up with Aditi Ashok and Diksha Dagar in Women's Individual Stroke Play Round 1. Aditi, who won the silver medal at the Asian games last year, finished fourth at Tokyo three years back with a score of 269 and 15-under par, two shots behind gold medal winner Nelly Korda of the United States. She was in contention to win the silver, but missed out by the barest of margins.

Suraj Panwar and Priyanka are currently 16th in the Marathon Race Walk Relay Mixed event. They have just covered over 12kms, but are currently not in contention for a medal.

Vinesh Phogat is set to add to India's tally of three medals today, but it isn't yet known whether the colour of the medal will be gold or silver. Avinash Sable would also look to bag at least a spot on the podium while Mirabai Chanu and Antim Panghal would be keen to show their true potential today.
