New Delhi: Gagan Narang and Samresh Jung bagged gold medals in the men's air rifle and free pistol events respectively at the Australia Cup in Melbourne on Sunday. Gagan shot a score of 700.2 (597+103.2) to win his second gold in the competition being held as a lead up to the Commonwealth Games at the same venue next month. The top Indian marksman shot three perfect rounds in his series of 100, 100, 100, 99, 99 and 99 for his personal best score. Olympian Abhinav Bindra, who did not compete in the final, was also impeccable in his effort in three of the six qualification rounds but totalled 593 (100, 97, 99, 100, 100, 97) to be content with eighth position. Samresh fired 565 for the top place in the free pistol event while Vivek Singh, who was fourth after the qualification round, shot well in the finals to win bronze. — PTI
