Changing Fortunes Of Shooter Sarabjot Singh: From Feeling Hopeless To Olympic Medal Three Days Later
Pistol shooter Sarabjot Singh has experienced the extreme highs and lows of elite sport in his maiden Olympics. Inconsolable after a narrow miss in the individual 10m air pistol event, Sarabjot raised his game to match his more accomplished team-mate Manu Bhaker and secure a second shooting medal for India at the Paris Games. After the heartbreak of last week, when the 22-year-old from Dheen village near Ambala missed the men's 10m air pistol final by the smallest of margins, an inner 10 to be specific, his whole shooting journey that began in 2016 flashed before his eyes.
"Greatest Sports Photo Of All Time": Surfer's Image At Paris Olympics Goes Viral
AFP photographer Jerome Brouillet knew to expect fireworks when he saw Brazilian Olympic surfer Gabriel Medina paddle into one of the day's biggest waves at one of the world's heaviest surf breaks. What he didn't know was that his picture of Medina kicking out of the wave after a ride that earned a record Olympics score in Tahiti would become a global sensation, and likely a defining image of the sport and the Games. Brouillet was on a boat in the channel -- an area of deeper, calmer water to the side of the wave but without a clear line of sight of the initial action.

Indian Trap Shooter Prithviraj Tondaiman Crashes Out Of Olympics Medal Race, Finishes 21st
India's miserable run on the shotgun ranges continued as trap shooter Prithviraj Tondaiman, despite shooting two perfect scores of 25 in the last two qualification rounds on Tuesday, finished 21st among 30 marksmen at the Olympic Games. The top-six shooters make it to the final round and, with an aggregate score of 118/125 after five rounds of qualification over two days, Tondaiman was five points adrift of the top-four shooters who shot 123 each in a high-quality field. The 37-year-old Tondaiman, who had shot 22, 25, 21, on Day 1 of the qualification round on Monday and was placed last among 30 competitors, fared much better with two perfect-25s on Tuesday but it came too late in the day at the Chateauroux Shooting Centre.
