Day 6: Shooters, swimmers fare poorly

Day 6: Shooters, swimmers fare poorly
The morning brought gloom to the Indian camp, as women shooters Anjali Bhagwat (seen here) and Avneet Kaur Sidhu fired erratically to crash out of the challenging 50 metre rifle three position at the qualification stage.

Competing at her third Olympic Games, Anjali seemed to crumble under pressure. The 38-year-old shooter managed only 571 out of 600, after having shot around 585 for a considerable time before coming here. She shot 191 in prone, 189 in standing and 191 in kneeling which gave her an overall 32nd spot in the qualification round of the event.
