@sameerph This reminds me off the American if not mistaken in 2004 who just had to hit the board in shooting to get gold but shot zero to loose not only the gold but get no medal...he had a lead of around 6 I think...But he gained the best in life, He got an consoler in shooting partner who later turned to be his wife....

Main problem is mental conditioning for our athletes...They need to have psychological sessions...Deepika was just that case where pressure took toll on her...She accepted that fact indirectly..Can't blame athletes for that.....This is important part of training for international athletes, But Indians hardly get this...And then blame game of not performing...Sportspeople will understand my point...Fans are bound to be frustrated but all go for glory and not for fun...No one wants slip up.

"Nothing was wrong apart from the wind. It was difficult to follow and understand. I shot the arrow and it was a miss. Of course is not what I expected, but there's nothing I can do about it now," Deepika said after the event. This clears the doubt that she indeed miss the arrow and not the time out issue....

Show was not of that glamour quotient and not enjoyable...But made me go through the history of Brazil and got to know about it...I think that itself has achieved the purpose of the organizers. Expected better Samba section, But dint get much. Caudron lighting build up was not there. But the design was awesome...It came n got over so fast.

Hope we can open our account today...

Good work by Deepika n Bombayla devi.....in top 8...

No it gives IST timing...I am getting AST for me...

We get in official website itself the local timing.

To be frank Surfing is more exciting than Golf to hang out for 4 days. Though I am huge fan of Golf....I am talking on merit of game.

Has Nadal withdrawn from Olympics?

Saketh looses in 1st Round in ATP Challenger. He was 3rd seed player...

Delhi to host Davis Cup world-group play-off tie against Spain in September...

No....In athletics its athletes quota....If we had more than 3 attained the mark then we could choose the best 3....Now its all over for him, Unless his conspiracy theory is proved. He is set to get 4 years of ban.

Happy to see the schedule that the entire day would be between my 3pm to 12 am. I finish my work at 3pm so its great to follow the games...
