The Paris Olympic Games are set to draw a close after nearly three weeks of fascinating and thrilling action in the French Capital. The Games, which began with the opening ceremony on July 26, will be concluded on August 11 with the closing ceremony.
Over 10000 athletes participated across 32 sports at the Paris Olympics. India sent a 117-member contingent for the Games and bagged a total of six medals (seven if Vinesh gets a silver).
This was India's joint-second-best campaign in terms of medals won at the Summer Games. Manu Bhaker bagged two medals, becoming the only Indian with two medals at a single edition of the Olympics since Independence. The Indian hockey team also clinched a bronze by defeating Spain in the fight for the third-place playoff by 2-1. Neeraj Chopra continued his brilliance as he took home a silver in the Javelin throw final with a throw of 89.45m.
Legendary goalkeeper PR Sreejesh and shooter Manu Bhaker have been chosen as India's flag-bearers for the closing ceremony. Sreejesh ends his India career with a bronze medal, while young shooter Manu has many more Olympics lined-up for her. The ceremony has been given the name of 'Records'. The other details regarding it have been kept hidden. Unlike the opening ceremony, which was held at the River Seine, the closing ceremony will be back to its traditional way. The Stade de France stadium will host the event infront of an expected 80,000 crowd.
