India’s top‑ranked boxer Jaismine Lamboria clinched gold at the 2026 Commonwealth Games, reinforcing the nation’s strong boxing legacy.
In the 2026 Commonwealth Games held in Victoria, Canada, India’s world number one boxer Jaismine Lamboria captured the gold medal in the women’s 60‑kg category.
Lamboria, who has been ranked at the top of the world rankings for several months, showcased her technical skill and stamina to outscore her opponents in a series of tightly contested bouts.
Her victory marks the third consecutive Commonwealth Games gold for India in boxing, following the successes of Mary Kom and Manisha Rani in previous editions.
The win not only cements Lamboria’s position as the leading name in Indian boxing but also boosts the country’s medal tally in the multi‑sport event.
With the Commonwealth Games now a key platform for athletes ahead of the Paris 2024 Olympics, Lamboria’s performance is expected to inspire a new generation of Indian boxers.
