France Bids Reluctant Farewell To Dazzling Paris Olympics 2024

France bid a reluctant farewell on Monday to an "enchanted" fortnight of Olympic sport as athletes headed home from Paris praising a dazzling edition of the Games that has breathed new life into the biggest show on earth. Hollywood star Tom Cruise delivered stardust at the closing ceremony on Sunday evening -- and a link with the next Games in Los Angeles -- by abseiling into the national stadium.  The "Mission Impossible" star descended on a wire in front of 71,500 spectators, grabbed the Olympic flag and jumped onto a motorbike, to the delight of thousands of dancing athletes and awe-struck fans. The final act of the Paris Olympics brought relief that an event foreshadowed by worries about terror attacks, strikes or protests had passed off with barely a hitch.

What Neeraj Chopra Said On Being Replaced By PR Sreejesh As India's Closing Ceremony Flag Bearer

Indian men's hockey team goalkeeper PR Sreejesh joined Manu Bhaker as the nation's second flag bearer at the closing ceremony of the Paris Olympics 2024. The decision, however, was a late one, with Neeraj Chopra earlier designated for the role. However, when the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) president PT Usha told Neeraj of the change in plans, the Tokyo Olympics gold medal winner's response proved why he is a gentleman. Neeraj has quickly established his reputation as one of the most humble sportspersons in the game, and this is the reason why.

"We'd Like To See More But...": Abhinav Bindra's Verdict On Indian Shooters In Paris Olympics 2024

Olympic gold medallist Abhinav Bindra believes there was a scope of "more conversions" for Indian shooters at the Paris Games but overall it was a campaign which they should be proud of. India clinched six medals overall with three in shooting as Manu Bhaker became the first ever athlete from the country post Independence to earn two podium finishes in a single edition of Olympics. Alongside winning a bronze medal in women's 10m air pistol, Manu grabbed another bronze in mixed 10m air pistol shooting with Sarabjot Singh as her teammate. India got another bronze when Swapnil Kusale finished third in the final of the 50m rifle 3 positions event in Paris.

Former Olympic Champion Tom Daley Retires From Diving

Former Olympic gold medallist Tom Daley announced his retirement from diving on Monday following the Paris Games. Daley, who won five Olympic medals during his decorated career, revealed the decision to call time on the sport during an interview with British Vogue. The 30-year-old bowed out after winning silver in the Olympic men's synchronised 10m platform in France, having clinched the gold medal in the same event at the Tokyo Games three years ago. "I have to make the decision at some point, and it feels like the right time. It's the right time to call it a day," Daley said. Daley emerged as the star of British diving after first competing at the Olympics in the 2008 Beijing Games aged just 14.

Neeraj Chopra's Net Worth Is Rs 37 Crore, Claims Report. Post Olympics, Arshad Nadeem's Is...

Neeraj Chopra vs Arshad Nadeem - that is one javelin rivalry that will be closely followed in years to come. The two stars almost had a same career trajectory since they started competing at the senior level, winning medals at the global level in a discipline that was largely dominated by Europeans before. But now, the top two javelin throwers in the world hail from South Asia. The rivalry got another boost at the Paris Olympics 2024, with Arshad winning the gold and Neeraj the silver.

Watch: Bhutanese Runner Finishes Marathon 1.5 Hours After Winner, Gets Loudest Cheer

Kinzang Lhamo, a marathon-runner from Bhutan, received the loudest cheers from the Paris crowd as she crossed the line in the women's marathon event at the Paris Olympics 2024. But she wasn't the winner. Nor the runner-up. Not even the bronze medalist. In fact, the 26-year-old Lhamo finished last. Not just by a small margin either; Lhamo finished nearly an hour and a half after marathon winner Sifan Hassan had crossed the line. Netherlands' Sifan Hassan had smashed the Olympic women's marathon record with a time of 2 hours 22 minutes 55 seconds. But that wasn't enough to get the biggest applause of the day.

Manu Bhaker To Neeraj Chopra - India's Records And Milestones At Paris Olympics

India's campaign at the Paris Olympics 2024 ended with six medals, a tally one short of the record total from Tokyo 2020.
