Somdev Devvarman created history by becoming the first Indian to win a gold medal in the men's singles tennis event of the Asian Games while discus thrower Krishna Poonia bagged a bronze as India claimed three more medals to maintain their 8th spot on the 11th day of competitions on Tuesday.

Second seed Somdev, who had won a gold in the men's doubles event alongwith Sanam Singh on Monday, upset top seed and world number 44 Denis Istomin of Uzbekistan 6-1, 6-2 in the lop-sided summit clash to achieve the historic feat.
