Harvinder Singh became the first Indian archer to win gold at the Paralympic Games, as he defeated Poland's Lukasz Ciszek 6-0 in the final of the men's individual recurve open class at the Paris Paralympics on Wednesday. It was India's fourth gold at the ongoing Paris Games.
Harvinder won five back-to-back matches in a single day, showing neither fatigue nor nerves to etch his name in the history books. In the semifinals, he overturned a 1-3 deficit to triumph 7-3 over one of the favourites of the competition - Iran's Mohammad Reza Arab Ameri.
