In Olympic games players securing fourth to eight position are honoured with .............
Diploma
At the Olympic Games, the top three finishers receive gold, silver and bronze medals. Athletes or teams finishing from fourth to eighth place receive an Olympic Diploma (diploma of merit).
Olympic diplomas were introduced in 1949 for places four to six and extended to eighth place in 1984. Money is not an IOC award, felicitation is not an official honour, and medals are limited to the first three places.
Hence, players securing fourth to eighth position are honoured with a Diploma.
