Worst outing for our shooting team in Asiad


Bibiana Ng Pei Chin bagged a silver medal in the 10m air pistol women during the National Shooting Championships at Subang Shooting Range in Subang yesterday.(14/07/2017/S.S.KANESAN/The Star)

SOUTH KOREAN coach Park Sang-soon imposed a gag order on the Malaysian team ahead of the Asian Games but it did not help the shooters become better athletes.

Instead, Malaysia recorded one of their worst outings when their challenge was completely muted in the Asian Games shooting competition. They did not win any medal and none of their shooters even reached the top-eight individual final.
