CHATEAUROUX: There was a meltdown and there was a tenacious fightback. Two talented shooters, both in the scheme of things till the very end, ended up with very different emotions at the ranges here on Sunday. One was distressing to watch, the other made you smile.
It was the women’s 10m air rifle qualification. Two Indians were in the fray – Elavenil Valaviran, competing in her second Olympic Games, and Ramita Jindal, a newcomer. The first one lost it in the final series and crashed out, the other recovered to live and will return on Monday to fight for a medal.
