Jitu Rai has been around for some time in Indian shooting. Rai did finish the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games with a Gold medal in the 10m Air Pistol event for Men. In the same event, compatriot Om Mitharwal finished in the third position. Jitu shot a total of 235.1, creating a Games Record on his way to the top prize.
The rules regarding some of the shooting events have changed, however, in the last two years. In Rio, each shooter got 20 shots while in Gold Coast each was assigned 24 shots. Jitu shot 235.1 after 24 shots but if we take the score of his first 20 shots, it would still land him at 202.1, enough for the Bronze in Rio, miles ahead of Chinese Pang Wei.
However, Jitu was present at Rio and was only able to finish eighth in the same event, much to the shock of Indian fans.
