RIO DE JANEIRO -- Buried beneath the confidence and the charisma, sprinkled between the jokes at the start of the news conference and the almost-naked dancers at the end, were a few hints that Usain Bolt is not in top shape for the Rio Olympics.The Jamaican Olympic team held what was billed as an introductory news conference Monday. It was more like a show. Instead of gathering at the Olympic Park media venue, which was good enough for Serena Williams, the USA mens basketball team and the president of the International Olympic Committee, Jamaica rented out a gleaming museum. Drinks and snacks were in abundance, as were executives and logos from Puma, which sponsors Bolt and the national team, in that order. The production began with a short film about Jamaican sports history.The spectacle was appropriate for Bolt, who considers himself both sprinter and entertainer. Hes the overwhelming favorite to win an unprecedented three sprint golds in a third consecutive Games -- the triple triple. His world records in the 100 and 200 are unassailable. A loss in Rio would be a monumental upset.But perhaps not inconceivable.The worlds fastest man pulled out of the Jamaican Olympic trials July 1 with a slight hamstring injury, then qualified for Rio on July 22 by winning a 200 in London in 19.89 seconds. After that race, Bolt said his coach, Glen Mills, told him, thats one of the worst races youve ever run.I was like what? Bolt said at the news conference. (Mills said) yeah, the corner was awful, he just went on until I got depressed. It was one of those things.Maybe that was just Mills motivating the notoriously lazy Bolt. In past years, Bolt has coasted into championships out of shape, but he has still found ways to win every time. The 2015 world championships in Beijing was Bolts closest call yet. In the 100, American sprinter Justin Gatlin was even with Bolt going into the final 20 meters, but Gatlin lost his composure and stumbled to the finish line. Bolt won by one hundredth of a second, 9.79 to Gatlins 9.80.On Monday, Bolt said his race with Gatlin in Rio wont be as close. It hasnt been a perfect season, Bolt said. But Im in much better shape, got a lot more races in.Enough races to achieve his long-stated goal of lowering his 200-meter world record to under 19 seconds?I think its going to be a little bit hard, Bolt said. I missed out on trials, and on training the last few weeks of the season. But you never know.We will find out this Sunday, in the 100-meter finals, just what kind of shape the legend is in.

Eight direct qualifications, instead of the three sent to Sydney in 2000, which had included two hardship wildcards. Of these the most invisible performer among them was Major Rajyavardhan Rathore, a serving army officer from the Nine Grenadiers who went about his Olympic campaign like it were a military mission. For the previous two years, he had spent no more than four months with his family as he trained and competed on sports ministry grants, which he earned by personally filling out government forms in quadruplicate. In the 18 months before Athens, he made the finals in every event he competed in, winning a bronze medal at the World Shotgun Championship in 2003 in Cyprus. When Athens arrived, he was ranked No. 3 in the world.The moment Out in an eastern Athenian suburb, Rathore was one of three Indians to make a 2004 Olympic final in four days, aware that the previous two, Anjali Bhagwat and Abhinav Bindra, had not bagged any medals. He was fifth of the six finalists, nine shots behind the leader, Ahmed Al Maktoum of the UAE, three behind the No. 2 finalist, Hakan Dahlby of Sweden. After three rounds of 50 shots each in the qualifiers, the final was one last round of 50 shots. Al Maktoum was very far ahead, but in the final round, Rathore was to come into his own. He soaked up the pressure, swallowing the lead of the rest of the finaalists, scoring 44 out of 50.dddddddddddd As other candidates fell aside, defeated by nerves, Rathores final two shots were to seal Indias first individual silver at the Olympics. While Maktoums Olympic record was being celebrated, the Indians at the Markopoulo Olympic Shooting Centre were to recognise in Rathores raised fist a sense of a mission completed.The reaction I may have appeared calm inside, but I was dying a thousand deaths out there. - Rajyavardhan RathoreExpert view Rathore changed me. His silver ensured that gold became my possibility. - Abhinav Bindra, Olympic shooting gold medallistThe story since Rathores silver medal led to a surge in shooting across the country, in national and international competitions. Within two years of his silver, India won its first World Shooting Championship titles in Zagreb 2006 - for Manavjit Singh Sandhu in trap shooting and Abhinav Bindra in the 10m air rifle. Rathore failed to make the shooting squad for the 2012 London Olympics. The following year he left the army to join active politics. He was elected MP for the Jaipur Rural constituency in 2014 and currently serves as minister for state for Information and Broadcasting. His son Manavaditya is now a competitive shooter, who won a trap gold in the International Junior Shotgun Cup held in Finland this May.
