Ace Indian shuttler Lakshya Sen will be aiming to seize his one last opportunity for a medal in the Paris 2024 Olympics as he faces Malaysia's Lee Zi Jia for bronze on August 5th (Monday). The 22-year-old was soundly beaten in the semi-final on Sunday by Denmark's Viktor Axelsen in straight sets, dashing Sen's hopes of clinching gold.

Among the other events, skeet events, table Tennis, sailing, women's freestyle wrestling are also on the cards. The Athletics will also continue on Monday as Avinash Sable will be in action in the Men's 3000m Steeplechase Round 1. Among the Athletics contingent, Kiran Pahal will also be seen in the women's 400 meters round 1.

Sable, who won gold in men's steeplechase and silver in 5000m during the Asian Games, has had an inspiring run to the top. Having been born in a small village in Beed district in Maharashtra, Sable comes from an underprivileged ground. It was the running speed that caught his teacher's eye at a very tender age and eventually participated in local marathons.

He also joined the Indian Army and discovered steeplechase. Any medal in the Olympics will be an incredible achievement for Sable.
