Indian shot-putter Tajinderpal Singh Toor finished 13th at the end of his three attempts in the qualifications of the men's Shot Put (Group A) of the Tokyo Olympics. Tajinder started with a throw of 19.99m, but had two disqualifications in the next two attempts to see his hopes of qualifying for the finals dashed. To qualify, athletes either needed to throw 21.20m or the top 12 would go into the final.
