New Delhi: India’s Greco-Roman wrestler Sunil Kumar continued his impressive run on the continental circuit, securing a commendable bronze – his fifth medal overall – in the 87kg weight division in the ongoing Asian Championships in Amman, Jordan.
The 25-year-old vanquished China’s Jiaxin Huang 5-1 to clinch bronze. Sunil, who won bronze at the Asian Games in Hangzhou, garnered his initial point due to Huang’s passivity and subsequently executed two swift gut wrenches to extend his advantage to 5-0 at the end of the first period.
