# Aman Sehrawat wins gold in men’s 57kg freestyle at Asian Games 2026 2026-10-03T10:18:18+00:00 | Sports | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 4 independent outlets Aman Sehrawat won the gold medal in the men's 57kg freestyle wrestling event at the Asian Games 2026 in Aichi-Nagoya on Saturday, 3 October. He defeated North Korea's Han Chong Song 11-7 in the final, upgrading the bronze he won at the Hangzhou 2022 edition. This is India's second gold in wrestling at these Games, after Sujeet Kalkal's gold in men's 65kg freestyle on 2 October, and the fourth wrestling medal overall. Aman, 23, is the youngest Indian to win an individual Olympic medal, having taken bronze at Paris 2024. The final was a closely fought contest: Aman led 6-1, then fell behind 7-6 after a North Korean comeback, before regaining the lead with less than a minute left to secure victory. ## Indian Opinion Analysis All four sources report the same result with near-identical match details and medal context, making this uniform straight reporting.
