There are swimmers who have won more than 20 individual Gold Medals at Rio Olympics. Phelps hails from United States of America that works really hard on training and management of sports-person but in India everything is ignored. Here in India, sports-person are not treated well. Corruption and ill management of sports has ruined some of the finest talents.
No matter how ruined or corrupt our system is but we have never failed to produce talents that can rule the world. Vijendra Singh, the first Indian Boxer to win a medal in Boxing at Olympics is now the World Champion in Professional Boxing Arena. Similarly, Abhinav Bindra who shot for India’s first Gold Medal at 2008 Beijing Olympics retired this year from Olympics by standing 4th in the event.

It was also reported that Abhinav Bindra fell on the floor as his gun’s eyepiece. Well, what happened with Abhinav at Rio Olympics was really sad but the way Abhinav shot with a replaced gun was commendable.
It would surprise you to know that the difference between the 3rd and 4th position holder was of 0.5 points. The Olympian who won Bronze medal scored 10.5 points while Abhinav scored a 10 pointer. What happened to Abhinav was surely sad and unfortunate but this in no matter brings down the amount of Glory and Respect Abhinav got for his homeland.
With the Rio Stint, Abhinav’s Olympic stint also ends. He will not be participating in any of the Olympics here onwards.
