Anju Bobby George, we are still proud of you. You had a flying start in the long jump final with a leap of 6.83m, which is a whopping 9 cm more than your national mark.
Anju, ranked sixth in the world, did her best to become the first Indian medallist in athletics.
You have proved Indians too can compete with the best athletes in the world. Better luck next time Anju.
Now the good news ...
Women’s 4x400m relay squad of Rajwinder Kaur, K M Beenamol, Chitra K Soman and national one-lap record holder Manjit Kaur dipped under the Indian mark to storm into the final by finishing third in their semi-final heat.
All the best to the 4x400m relay team!
The Indian hockey team capped their disappointing run in the competition with a win to finish seventh.
