Abhinav Bindra misses medal at Rio Olympics

Monday's disappointment will see the curtains come down on the glittering career of the 2008 Beijing Olympics gold medalist

Abhinav Bindra to call it quits after Rio Olympics

IANS Rio de Janeiro

Abhinav Bindra narrowly missed out on a medal after finishing fourth in the final of the men's 10 metre Air Rifle final at the Olympic Shooting Centre here on Monday.

Bindra started well, but a couple of wayward shots cost him dearly as he lost in the bronze medal play-off to finish fourth with a total score of 163.8.

Monday's disappointment will see the curtains come down on the glittering career of the 2008 Beijing Olympics gold medalist — India's only individual Olympic gold — as he had earlier announced that he will announce his international retirement after the Rio Olympics.
