London Olympics - Final Medal Tally

What a great weekend for India at the Olympics. First it was Yogeshwar, then it was Sushil Kumar. First it was a Bronze, then it was a Silver!. The spectacular 16 days of sporting action have ended with an extravagant closing ceremony. 

India's performance has been a good one, an improved one from the last Beijing's Olympic, (not to miss the major disappointments). The number of Medals have also doubled to 6 this time. The last 3 medals for India -Mary Kom won a Bronze medal for Boxing, Yogeshwar Dutt won a Bronze in wrestling and Sushil Kumar earned the last medal for India, a Silver in wrestling. 

The final top 10 positions in the Medal Tally at the end of Day 16, the 12th of August are as follows. India stood at 55th position with 6 Medals-2 Silver and 4 Bronze.
