Abhinav Bindra wins gold, Beijing 2008
Sharpshooter Abhinav Bindra just played his last Olympic Games at Rio 2016, 8 years after his first Olympic glory, only narrowly missing out on a podium spot. At Beijing in 2008, Bindra, participating in the men’s 10m air rifle, won top honours.
It was the first time that an Indian had won individual gold at the Olympic Games, a feat Bindra accomplished in a field of difficult competitors.
