She GB It was hit on the first day of the Tokyo Olympics, because Seonaid McIntosh, who was expected to win a medal, missed the 10m air rifle final.
The 25-year-old player frankly explained her chances before the qualifying round, insisting that next week’s three games are her best chance to win a medal.
She said: “I just lowered my expectations. This is not my best activity. Where will it go. If people want to try to put pressure on me, they can.
“But I can choose whether to feel the pressure, or whether to put myself under the pressure. So I just keep a cool head.”
As the top eight reached the finals and finished 12th in qualifying, her concerns emerged on Saturday morning.
McIntosh scored 627.2, only 1.3 lower than the last position. Next, she will participate in the 50m 3 qualifying 7 days later.
