Paris: Indian wrestler Aman Sehrawat faced a setback in his pursuit of Olympic glory as he lost to Japan’s Higuchi Rei in the semi-final of the men’s freestyle 57kg category at the Paris 2024 Olympics. Sehrawat, who had impressed earlier in the competition, was defeated 0-10 by the top-seeded Japanese wrestler.
