Gagan Narang and Sanjeev Rajput failing to qualify for the finals of men’s 50 meter rifle three position competition at the Beijing Olympics 2008.
Narang fired 1167 to finish 13th while Rajput was a distant 26th with 1162 points in the qualification round. Narang was way behind in the qualification mark as the last man making the cut tallied 1170 while Rajmond Debevec of Slovenia topped the list with 1176 points.
This ends India’s challenge in shooting at the Olympics this year. Quite a number of good performances were expected from the shooters who all failed to qualify for the finals in their respective categories. Except for Abhinav Bindra who got the country its first ever individual gold medal in the Olympics.
