I am at peace with my decision to retire: Abhinav Bindra

TIL Desk Sports/ Abhinav Bindra’s body language belied any emotions whatsoever on what was the final day of an illustrious career as he made it clear that he was done with aiming bull’s eye and ready to move to the next phase of his life although he does not know what it is.

“It is my job to be composed. I do not want to break down in front of you. I knew this was coming and I am at peace with it. I did my best but ended up fourth. No medal but very close. Had a good day, but it didn’t pay off,” Bindra told.

Soon to be 34, Bindra maintained that there’s no chance of entering the shooting range again. “I am done, I have announced my retirement, so there is no reconsideration. I am not going to shoot again. This is it.
