Indian boxer Lovlina Borgohain has secured at least a bronze medal at the Commonwealth Games 2026 after receiving a direct entry into the women’s 75kg semifinals in Glasgow. The Tokyo Olympic bronze medallist advanced without competing because the event features only five boxers, with three receiving first-round byes. Lovlina will face Tuvalu’s Tarona Khanum Badi Pasoni Taafaki in the semifinal on July 31, with the winner progressing to the gold medal match. This guarantees Lovlina her first Commonwealth Games medal, completing a collection that already includes honours from the Olympics, World Championships, Asian Games and Asian Championships.
