Harvinder Singh won bronze at the Tokyo Paralympics in 2021. He now has a chance to upgrade to at least a silver as he makes the final of the men's individual recurve open category in #Paris2024.
Harvinder was born to a farming family in Haryana. At the age of one and a half, he was diagnosed with dengue. His parents took him to a local doctor who administered him with an injection that had an adverse effect on him. His leg stopped working properly.
Harvinder, who was balancing a doctorate in economics alongside his archery pursuits, turned his farm into a practice ground during the lockdown. Can he win gold today?
Harvinder takes on Poland's Lukasz Ciszek in the gold medal match.
