He finished 16th in some recently concluded comp.. looks like he feels doesn't need to prove anything anymore......No motivation like some other athletes who want to keep winning. As I said only badminton stands a chance.....even there I expect Saina to choke before the gold medal game. Maybe a wild card like Malleswari in 2000 or Y.Dutt in 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adi_91 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 This time, things don't look too good. Saina is iffy and the rest are unreliable. I will be impressed if we can equal the 2012 medal count. Anything over 6 medals will be heartening. Only Badminton and Gymnastics, what about Archery and shooting? I think our big hope for some medals is in Shooting. Any Boxers to look out for?

Rowing is another one but not for a medal but for a decent performence. Not much idea about boxing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the mindset is to win medals, not just to compete and give their best. The archers in 2012 were huge flops and hope they do better. I have no hope from the bitter tennis fighters.

I have no hope from them anyway. They pair with foreigners and win titles, and don't care about medals. And then they have politics to play before each Olympic games to choose their partner as if they are going to win. Shameful examples these to youngsters wanting to play tennis.
