Jasmine Ser wins Gold Medal for 10m Air Rifle Individual (Ladies) at Commonwealth Games
Wearing a new pair of contact lenses, she put up a flawless performance in a Finals Games record.
Jasmine Ser and Cheng Jian Huan win Silver in the 10m Air Rifle (Pair) ; Gai Bin and Poh Lip Meng take Bronze in 25m Pistol (Pairs) in Commonwealth Games
Jasmine and Jian Huan saw an early lead erode as the Malaysian pair overtook them in the latter stage with a 793 to 790 point victory. I had a chance to chat with both of them before presenting them with scarves at the Victory Ceremony. Jasmine developed dry eyes mid way, and despite eye drops just couldn’t clear her eyes well enough. Poor Jian Huan was nursing a flu, and fighting drowsiness. Nevertheless, it was an excellent performance, and they have another day of competition tomorrow.
