Rifle shooter Chain Singh suffered a major setback in his preparation for the Rio, as the Army shooter has been hospitalized in Lausanne, after being diagnosed with pulmonary embolism and pneumonia on Thursday. Pulmonary embolism is a condition where blood clots form in the veins of the patient and causes trouble in breathing. 

Chain, who is training with Gagan and Apurvi Chandela along with coach Stanislav Lapidus in Lausanne, was supposed to fly to Rio on Sunday. But now, he would be staying there till August 1 and would be joining the team by August 2.

Hockey coach Oltmans to use multiple captains in Rio

 

With India going into the Olympics with only one goalkeeper in the 16, they can ill-afford to lose Sreejesh owing to cards or penalties. To counter this, the senior players will take turns to wear the captain's arm band.
"From now on, we will share captaincy. Sreejesh is the captain but he will never wear the band during matches. Sardar, Raghunath, Sunil and Mandeep will wear it. We worked on the group of captains to make sure on and off the pitch, more responsibility is taken up by more players," elaborated Oltmans.

There is a sudden spurt of coverage of Olympics in the Indian media since two days, India Today latest issue is having it as cover page. We can hope that more coverage should spawn greater interest in sports among public.
