OGQ to support shooters Joydeep Karmakar, Rahi Sarnobat

Non-profit organisation Olympic Gold Quest (OGQ) today announced that it will be supporting Olympians Joydeep Karmakar and Rahi Sarnobat as the shooters target medals for India at the 2016 Rio Games.
Joydeep narrowly missed out on a medal when he finished 4th in the 50 m Rifle Prone event in London. Rahi won a gold medal at the ISSF World Cup in Changwon, Korea in March 2013 in the 25 m Sports Pistol event. Her other achievements include a pairs gold and an individual silver medal at the 2010 Commonwealth Games in the Capital.
Karmakar: "I am delighted to be supported by OGQ. I missed the bronze medal by a whisker at the 2012 London Olympics and I will try my best to win a medal for India at the next Olympics in Rio.

"I really require OGQ's support for training with my foreign coach and for ammunition testing which is very crucial for a rifle shooter. I believe that OGQ's professionalism and efficiency will help me achieve my dream of an Olympic medal."
Sarnobat said: "The sports science team of OGQ is world class. I recently injured my shooting hand and the OGQ medical team promptly diagnosed the injury and put a rehabilitation program in place.
"This will help me get back to competitive shooting at the earliest. This is very important for me as my target this year is to win a medal for India at the Commonwealth and Asian Games."

Viren Rasquinha, CEO of OGQ spoke on the talented shooters.
"OGQ is delighted to support both Joydeep and Rahi who are outstanding talents. We believe that support from OGQ will help them consistently win medals at international tournaments with the Olympics in Rio 2016 being the main target.
