Beijing Olympics 2008

India@Beijing Olympics 2008: Wrestler Tomar out

Wrestler Rajiv Tomar crashed out of the 120kg freestyle event of the Beijing Olympics with a comprehensive defeat early on Thursday.

The Indian grappler fought a bad qualifying round bout against Steve Mocco and the American blanked Rajiv 4-0 to show him the exit door.

There was hope of a repechage round but Mocco failed to reach the final. The American lost his semi-final bout against Russian Bakhtiyar Akhmedov 1-3. Had Mocco reached the final, Rajiv would have played in the repechage and could have been in the hunt for a bronze medal.

On Wednesday, Sushil Kumar won a bronze medal in the 66 kg category through repechage.
