Samaresh finishes 13th

NEW DELHI: Samaresh Jung shot a 553 out of 600 in the 50m free pistol to take the 13th spot in the ongoing shooting World Cup at Fort Benning, U.S.

A below par start when he had an 89 in the first round affected Samaresh's chances of making the final, which he eventually missed by two points. He had rounds of 93, 93, 91, 95 and 92 after the first round.

The results: Free pistol: 1. Lin Zhongzai (Chn) 668.2 (568); 2. Christoph Schmid (Sui) 659.7 (567); 3. Shi Xinglong (Chn) 656.7 (561); 13. Samaresh Jung 553; 27. Amanpreet Singh Jhaam 544; 38. Vivek Singh 537.
