Summer Olympics appearances (overview) | |
India competed at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan. Originally scheduled to take place from 24 July to 9 August 2020, the games were postponed to 23 July to 8 August 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] India has appeared in every edition of the Summer Olympics since 1920, although it made its official debut at the 1900 Summer Olympics in Paris. The nation sent its largest-ever contingent of 126 competitors to the 2020 Games. To date, the 2020 Summer Olympics are the most successful Games for India since its first regular Olympics appearance in 1920,[4][5][6] with Indian Olympians winning 7 medals (1 gold, 2 silver and 4 bronze).[7] The Indian contingent participated in a record 69 events, and earned medals across 18 athletic disciplines.[4][6]
In the men's javelin throw, Neeraj Chopra won India's first-ever gold medal in athletics,[5] the nation's second ever individual gold and first individual gold since 2008. This was also India's first athletics medal since its first Olympics appearance as an independent nation in 1948, and its third overall after Norman Pritchard's silver medals in 1900. Saikhom Mirabai Chanu won India's first-ever silver in women's weightlifting (49 kg), becoming the first Indian Olympic medallist in the sport since 2000, while P. V. Sindhu won a bronze in women's badminton to became the first Indian female athlete and second Indian to win two consecutive Olympic medals for individual events (having won a silver in badminton in 2016).[4] The men's national field hockey team won the bronze medal, their first Olympic medal since 1980.[8] The men's 4 x 400m relay team set a new Asian record of 3:00:25. Aditi Ashok in women's golf and Deepak Punia in men's freestyle wrestling (86 kg) both placed fourth in final rankings, as did the women's national field hockey team, which achieved its best performance since its Olympics debut in 1980.
