Harvinder Singh wins bronze in shoot-off win in archery at the Tokyo Paralympics

(Archery news) Tokyo Paralympics 2021 Live Update: Harvinder Singh created history at the Tokyo Paralympics as the first Indian archer to win a medal. He defeated Korea’s Kim Min Su 6-5 at the men’s individual recurve open event, thereby increasing India’s medal tally to 13. Harvinder had earlier lost to USA’s Kevin Mather which ruled the Indian archer out of contention for the gold and silver medals. However, Harvinder Singh displayed nerves of steel as he held his composure against Kim Min Su to finish in third place at the Tokyo Paralympics.

The Indian Paralympic contingent has enjoyed a relatively successful day with three medals already. They will hope to improve on the tally in the upcoming days.
