To gain something, Aman Sehrawat first needed to lose something. When the scales of the weighing machine showed 61.5 kg on Thursday after his semi-final defeat to eventual champion Rei Higuchi, Aman had a bigger job at hand before taking the mat for the bronze medal play-off. India's youngest Olympic bronze medal-winning grappler had to shed 4.5 kilograms of body weight in a stipulated time of 10 hours before mandatory second-day weigh-in to qualify for the 57 kg bout. Catch the LIVE updates for Paris Olympics 2024 here By the time Aman was up on the weighing machine on the second morning, he along with his coaches Jagmander Singh and Virender Dahiya had accomplished the mission – reduced 4.6 kgs to be eligible for the fight at 56.9 kg. All the hard work came to fruition when Aman won the bronze medal, beating Puerto Rico's Darian Cruz on Friday to become India's youngest-ever Olympic medallist.
