India's lega name is India Sardjoe, so that's exactly the case here.

Is India also one of the 100 countries that mostly gets 4th places?

We got 6 4th places this time compared to 6 medals, not sure of medals to 4th place ratio for other countries

I'd be curious to see that, but every Olympics I see people from every country on here complaining about how they missed so many chances and got so many 4th places  

 

It's like people mostly just remember the unfortunate moments instead of the good ones
