China reaps two Olympic quota places at Asian Shooting Championships
KUWAIT CITY, Dec. 10 (Xinhua) — World champion Jia Zhanbo raised up and waved to the audiences after he made the last shot. A smile on his face, the Chinese shooter knew that he would carry back to his country not only another gold medal and an Arabic-styled wooden ship model, but a long-expected Olympic ticket in men’s 50-meter rifle prone event.
Team GB closes fast on Olympic berth in Beijing
Olympic qualification is decided by national rankings after the four World Cups and next March’s world championships, and the Beijing round had particular significance as Wiggins and Cavendish may not be able to race the final two World Cups due to their road-racing commitments.
I can only imagine the pressure that’s building up for all Olympic hopefuls as the 2008 Beijing Games closes in. Congratulations to all who’ve made it in and best of luck to all that are still working on it!
