Weightlifter Mirabai Chanu fails to win 2nd Olympic medal, finishes fourth

Indian weightlifter Mirabai Chanu came tantalisingly close to clinching a second Olympic medal but a faltered lift in her final attempt cruelly snatched the dream from her grasp, leaving her with a fourth place finish in the women's 49kg event here on Wednesday. Chanu, who turns 30 on Thursday, lifted a total of 199kg (88kg+111kg) at the South Paris Arena. It was 3kgs less than what she heaved at the Tokyo Olympics, 202 kg for a silver medal.

Romanian Mihaela Cambei took home the silver with total of
