Looks like it is a very costly sport from bbc Abhinav had every facility at his beck and call - his family in the northern state of Punjab has spent millions of rupees to fuel his dream of an Olympic medal. Maybe that added to the pressure on the young man, who seldom smiles or drops his calm look. Yet, he did have the determination, which those close to him saw and which prompted his father, AS Bindra, to liken his own son a "silent killer". His affluent family - he himself runs one of the businesses, Abhinav Futuristics, named after him - backed him to the extent that he had a private shooting range at home. His father spared no effort to ensure the best of everything from equipment to coaches to training stints and tournaments for exposure. The government, too, kept faith in him with a number of grants. Asked how his life would change after the gold medal, Bindra says: "For me life will go on. I sincerely hope that it changes how Olympic sports is viewed in India. "Right now Olympic sports don't seem to be priority and I hope that changes. As for shooting, I am sure it will grow stronger from here | ||

Congratulation Mr. Bindra. You made India PROUD. I was always saddend by the fact that India does so poorly in Olympics. I always knew Indians are poor athlets, but I always wondered why Indian's cann't compete good in shooting, archery and other sports where PHYSIC doesn't matter, only skills matter. Anyway, past is past and now we have a NEW NATIONAL HERO in Abhinav. | ||

Abhinav Bindra won India's first-ever individual Olympic gold medal when he claimed the men's 10m Air Rifle shooting title here on Monday. Athens Games champion Zhu Qinan of China won the silver and Henri Hakkinen of Finland took the bronze at the Beijing Shooting Hall on the outskirts of the Chinese capital. Bindra, the 25-year-old businessman from the northern city of Chandigarh, followed his world championship title two years ago to finally win a landmark gold medal for his country. In one of the most thrilling shooting finals in Olympic history, Bindra overcame a two-point deficit against Hakkinen and one point against Zhu after the qualification rounds to annexe the title. The Indian trumped his rivals with the best finish of 104.5 in the 10-shot final as he went into the last shot level with Hakkinen on 689.7 points. While Bindra secured his best score of 10.8 in the deciding shot, Hakkinen managed only 9.7 to concede the silver to Zhu, whose last shot was 10.5. Bindra finished with a combined tally of 700.5, a fair distance behind Zhu's Olympic record of 702.7 set in Athens. Zhu came in with 699.7 this time and Hakkinen, a member of Finland's armed forces who is taking part in his first Olympics, scored 699.4 points. India, winners of eight field hockey gold medals, had never won an individual Olympic title before Bindra's feat. The previous best was trap shooter Rajyavardhan Rathore's silver at Athens, while there were bronze medals for wrestler Khasaba Jadhav (1952), tennis star Leander Paes (1996) and woman weightlifter Karnam Malleswari (2000). | ||
