Tokyo Olympics 2020: Neeraj Chopra is India's golden boy

Neeraj Chopra won a historic gold medal in men's javelin throw to make the Tokyo 2020 Games India's best ever Olympics campaign. Chopra scripted history on Saturday by becoming independent India's first athlete to win a medal in a track and field event.

Golfer Aditi Ashok missed a medal by a whisker, as she finished fourth after staying in contention for a silver for the longest time.

India though matched its best medal haul at a single Olympic Games after wrestler Bajrang Punia gave India its 6th medal of the campaign, which put it on par with the showing at the 2012 London Olympics.

The women's hockey team finished a creditable fourth and came very close to winning a historic medal. Kamalpreet Kaur came a creditable 6th in women's discus throw.

But the big disappointments of the Games for India were the shooters, who drew a blank for the second straight Games despite several strong contenders in the fray.

The archery team also failed to get any medals despite the the experienced Deepika Kumari participating in her third Olympics. The manner of her quarter-final defeat, where she hit several scores of 7, was a matter of disappointment.

Wrestler Vinesh Phogat and boxer Amit Panghal were also big contenders, who failed to deliver a medal.
