Simranjit Kaur (60 kg) defeats Namuun Monkhor of Mongolia 5-0 to book her Tokyo Olympic spot. Quota number 8 for Team India. This is India's equal best performance ever in an Olympic qualifier event.
Earlier in 2012 London Olympics 8 boxers had qualified . India can better that record as in next two days two more boxers have opportunities to qualify. Reminder: Sachin Kumar (81kg) and Manish Kaushik (63kg) can still earn quota place as they will play box-off bouts over the next two days.
