HISTORIC DAY FOR INDIAN SPORT !!!

 

Our first ever Gymnastics Olympic qualifier, and she's one with actually a decent shot at a medal, rather than just "going there for the experience" !!!

Taking nothing away from Dipa ......... This is our 6 olympic qualifier in gymnastics we had 2 in 1952 and 3 in 1956 ...................   but our first female qualifier , our first in 60 years and the first one with a true medal prospect .....................

Even if she doesnt get a medal(Realistically its next to impossible), she will be in the top 5 at least...

why next to impossible ...... she finished 5th at the world championship in the vault ..... so a small miss by someone else and she could be in with a medal chance ...so I would say some chances ( but not next to impossible )
