54 , 57 & 54 are not bad scores from our archers. Korean athletes looked so composed even in 2nd set when we had good total (57). Kim Je deok is only 17 year old and seems like he is not feeling any pressure. He already won mixed team Gold & now set to win Gold in Men's team.
First of all , we have to blame our athletes performance in ranking round. Even 7th place in ranking round, we would have avoided South Korea.
But Japan won 2 sets against S.Korea in SF by scoring 55 & 56 points in 2nd & 4th sets.
Sumit Nagal and Sania Mirza will compete in Mixed Doubles. As per IOC 27 July 11 AM is the deadline for entries and players will be selected amongst those who are already in Tokyo for either Singles or Doubles.
In mixed team 10m pistol event,Saurabh and Many fail to qualify for the medal rounds despite qualifying for the Finals in the first position.
When the position for Medals were to be decided, Manu Bhakkar(just like 10m individual event) capitulated big time under pressure and shot a series of 92 and 94(considered pathetic) which led to undoing of Saurabh's good work of 96 and 98.
This is the second time she capitulated under pressure and failed to perform decently, let alone exceptionally.
In the first event, she blamed it on the pistol. Now,let's see,what excuse she has for us.
