  • India in Asian Games-2014
    India in Asian Games-2014 The 2014 Asian Games was held in Incheon, South Korea from September 19 – October 4, 2014. China topped the medals table for the ninth time followed by South Korea and Japan. China won 151 gold medals ahead of the 79 won by host South Korea. Most Valuable Player award was won by Japanese swimmer Kosuke Hagino, who won seven medals including four individual gold medals. India finished eighth with 11 gold, 10 silver and 36 bronze. India’s performance in Incheon went slightly down from 14 gold medals to 11 compared to Guangzhou 2010. Four of those gold medals came in athletics (two) and kabaddi (two) while archery, boxing, hockey, shooting, squash, tennis and wrestling accounted for the rest. In shooting Jitu Rai won the first gold for India by beating the strong contenders like Wang Zhiwei of China and South Korean two-time Olympic champion and reigning world champion Jongoh to win the gold. Yogeshwar Dutt accomplished it in style by ending India's 28-year-old gold medal drought in the wrestling. The London Olympic Games bronze-medallist fought with verve and determination to win the men's freestyle 65kg gold. In tennis Sania and Saketh Myneni defeated Chinese Taipei’s pair to win the country a mixed doubles gold. She also bagged a bronze in the women’s doubles partnering Prarthana. Apart from these two medals in tennis, men’s doubles pair of Myneni and Sanam Singh took the silver, while Yuki Bhambri and Divij Sharan settled for a bronze.
