- description: Twenty nine year old Yogeshwar Dutt turned on a lion hearted display and tore the form book to shreds to crown himself in glory as he won a wrestling bronze medal in the 60kg freestyle category at the London Olympics. On a day when the bearded man had to stretch every sinew and breathe hard, he reserved the best for the end as he pinned down Ri Jong Myong of North Korea in the closing stages to seal victory (2-1). Yogeshwar's two coaches were screaming from the sidelines as the big moment arrived and he won the final repechage bout. "This is the biggest day of my life. I have competed in two Olympics before but this was my day," said a beaming Yogeshwar. With this, India increased its medal tally to one silver and four bronze at the London Olympics. To be sure the burst of aggression from Yogeshwar in the afternoon when he had to go through three rounds in repechage was refreshing Earlier on, luck favoured Yogeshwar as in the first round of repechage the sturdy Indian grappler defeated Franklin Matos Gomez 2-0, courtesy two clinch efforts.
