NEW DELHI: Gagan Narang won the
bronze medal in the 50m Rifle Prone
Event of the ISSF World Cup at Fort
Benning in USA, earning himself a
quota place for the 2016 Rio
Olympics. He speaks on getting an
Olympic berth, does he consider
himself a perfectionist and how he
struggled as a shooter over the
years.
So, what was the first thought
predominant in your mind when
you qualified for the Rio Olympics?
The first thought was of 'relief'. The
later one leaves it for, the more one
falls back on the 'Theory of
Probability' and risk Murphy's Law. I
was keen to complete one part of the
process, i.e securing the quota, this
year. I was working towards that.
Very glad that it happened in the
US.
