Yogeshwar Dutt brought India its 5th Medal at the London Olympics as he won Bronze in the Men's 60 kg Free-Style Wrestling Event on Saturday. Yogeshwar Dutt's journey to the Bronze Medal victory was full of drama. Yogeshwar had won his Qualifier easily but lost in the Pre-Quarter Final match.
Yogeshwar then came back to wrestle in the repechage rounds. What Yogeshwar did in the repechage rounds was nothing short of human excellence. He won 3 wrestling bouts on the trot in a space of less than an hour to secure India a Bronze Medal.
This was Yogeshwar's 3rd and last Olympics and he just had the perfect ending to it. The 29-year-old Yogeshwar won his Bronze Medal match in a scintillating fashion. He scored 6 technical points in a jiffy to win the bout. Whole India is proud of him and he has certainly given some late spark to India's Olympic journey at London.
