End of the Indian campaign in Women's 10m Air Rifle
That's it. That's the end of the campaign for India in Women's 10m Air Rifle. Both, Apurvi Chandela and Elavenil Valarivan, looked far from their best and inconsistent - the former more so.
Elavenil finishes 16th and Apurvi at 36th position.
Remember, Apurvi had finished 34th in the qualification round five years back in Rio as well. So, the disappointment continues at the biggest stage continues for the veteran.
For Elavenil, on the other hand, this will be a huge learning curve. Not easy representing your country at the Olympics at just 21 years of age.

Archery- Mixed Team
Set 4- India win 37-36
