Indian discus thrower Seema Kaliramna, who overcame post-pregnancy arthritis to resume her sporting career just last year, clinched a bronze medal at the Commonwealth Games here despite marginally falling short of her personal best in the event. Compatriot Nidhi Rani ended fourth in the same competition on Thursday.

Seema produced the medal-winning throw of 58.65m in her third attempt and went on to foul the remaining three chances. Jamaica’s Samantha Hall won the gold with a throw of 61.66m, while Canada’s Julia Tunks took silver with 60.67m.
