At the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Indian judoka Asmita Dey won the country's first-ever gold medal in judo, defeating Canada's Heidi Quach in a closely contested final decided by Golden Score. Asmita, a Sub-Inspector from Uttar Pradesh, dedicated her victory to her late father, who supported her career. India's judo team secured a historic four-medal haul, including two golds, one silver, and one bronze, which athletes hope will boost the sport's recognition and inspire more youth participation in India.
