Asian Games: Elavenil Wins Silver After Thrilling 10m Air Rifle Final At Asian Games
Nagoya Asian Games: Elavenil Valarivan added another silver to India’s medal tally at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games after finishing second in a tense women’s 10m air rifle individual final here at the Aichi Pref. General Shooting Gallery on Sunday.
Having already contributed to India’s silver in the team event earlier in the day, Elavenil came within touching distance of another medal of a different colour before Japan’s Hinata Taichi produced a decisive finish to claim gold with an Asian Games record score of 253.0.
Elavenil was firmly in control for much of the final. She opened strongly and remained at the top through the early stages, posting 53.1 after the first five shots, then extended her advantage as the elimination rounds began.
