Indian wrestler Sushil Kumar lost his 66kg freestyle final bout against Tatsuhiro Yonemitsu of Japan 1-3 and had to settle with silver medal at the London Olympics on Sunday.
Sushil won bronze at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.
Sushil Kumar can take a bow as he will now be considered at par with legendary hockey players Dhyan Chand and Balbir Singh Sr although theirs was a team sport and were part of back-to-back gold medal winning teams.
