 No
individual gold has mattered so much to so many people in the history of
Olympics. It was a medal for Abhinav; it was redemption for India. Never again
will anyone be able to point a smug, sardonic finger and say: "No Indian is good
enough to win an individual Olympic
gold."</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://olympics.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/3350682.cms">this is the first time that an Indian has won an individual
gold since modern Olympics started in 1896. </blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://olympics.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/3350682.cms">
 "How does it feel Mr
Bindra?"  "Hard to describe it... it's the thrill of my life," he said, still
looking calm as a monk.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://olympics.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/3350682.cms">
 Will this not change his life? "My life will go on. I hope it
changes the face of Olympic sports in the country," he said.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://olympics.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/3350682.cms">
 This is
the fifth individual Olympic medal for India. Khashaba Dadasaheb Jadhav won the
first, a bronze in wrestling at the Helsinki Games in 1952. After a long gap,
Leander Paes won the tennis bronze in Atlanta Games in 1996. Then, Karnam
Malleswari won a weightlifting bronze in 2000 in Sydney</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://olympics.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/3350682.cms">Rajyavardhan Singh
