Indias track and field campaign got off to a rather jaded start with all athletes, barring Manish Singh Rawat and Dutee Chand, putting up dispirited performances. Rawat finished a creditable 13th in the mens 20km walk with a timing of 1: 21.21, ahead of Olympic record holder Ding Chen, while Dutee put in a brave effort to finish seventh in her heat and 50th overall in the womens 100m qualifying event.Dutee clocked 11.69s to finish her heat, becoming the first Indian woman to represent the country in the event at the Olympics in 36 years. However, her timing wasnt enough to make her reach the next round.Jamaicas Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, who previously won two consecutive 100m golds at the Olympics in 2008 and 2012, stood first clocking 10.96s.?Rawat, the 25-year-old from Uttarakhand,?was doing well initially, sitting at 10th spot after the 6-km mark. He dropped to 18th after the 8-km mark but recovered to be at seventh after the halfway 10km mark with a timing of 40:22.?But, after the 12km mark, he was at 18th again; he eventually finished the race at 13th.

Gowda, the reigning Asian champion, began with a 57.59m throw and improved by more than a metre for a 58.99m second throw before producing a 58.70m in his third and final attempt.My performance was not very good today. Its frustrating. Ive just had a lot of bad luck this year and a lot of injuries. I was not able to train until three or four weeks ago. Obviously, that was not enough time to prepare, Gowda said, I tore both quad-tendons of my knees. I had to take a break from training so did not get enough time.Female shot-putter Manpreet Kaur, who holds the national record of 17.96m, finished 23rd among 35 competitors with a best throw of 17.06m. She finished 13th in the Group B qualifying round.

World record holder David Rudisha of Kenya won the heat in 1:45.09secs.During the race, Johnson was hit on his legs by a fellow runner at the first bend and he struggled for a while before recovering and finished 25th out of 50 competitors. Johnson, the 25-year-old from Kerala, had clocked 1:45.98, the second fastest by an Indian after the legendary Sriram Singh, during the Indian Grand Prix in Bangalore last month.In the first round of the mens 400m event, Md Anas clocked 45.95s to finish sixth in his heat and 31st overall, failing to qualify for the semifinal. The top 3 performers in each heat, followed by the next three best performers advanced to the next round. The defending Olympic champion, Grenadas?Kirani James finished first, clocking 44.93s.In the long jump qualifiers, Ankit Sharma started off with two fouls. There is a foul line in the run-up area. If an athlete jumps anywhere beyond that specific line, he/she gets a foul. He followed it up by a score of 7.67 in his third and final attempt to finish 24th overall.As the top-12 athletes qualified for the final round, Sharma failed to make it through.

I really dont think [the time off] is going to affect me, because I have worked out and practiced every day, but live pitching is different. So I am going to play a few games in Triple A to get back into the swing of things, that way when I go up to a team that is in first place I can have a positive impact.Gomez, who reported to Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday, told ESPN.com that he evaluated offers from several teams, including the Miami Marlins, but opted for the Rangers due to their position as divisional leaders, the opportunity to get regular playing time, and his familiarity with the league and division.This is an amazing opportunity for me to go to a team that is in first place in the division and headed to the playoffs, Gomez said in a phone conversation Saturday night. I had a few offers from other teams, but I chose the Rangers because I believe it is the team wwhere I can feel most comfortable and develop better since I will be staying in the same division.dddddddddddd Even though I did not do my job with the Astros, I know the league and the division well.The Rangers are a team that seem to have great harmony and their playing style is similar to mine, but the first thing for me was that they are in first place and have players like Adrian Beltre, Carlos Beltran, Elvis Andrus, Ian Desmond; thats pretty special. Its inspiring. I am going to be on a winning team.Gomez gave credit to Beltran for the Rangers giving him a chance after hitting .210 with five home runs and 29 RBIs in 85 games before being released by Houston. Gomez was brought up in the New York Mets organization, where he met the Puerto Rican outfielder in 2005; they were teammates during the 2007 season.Carlos Beltran has been like a father to me; he has always being very supportive of my career, Gomez said. When a player like Carlos Beltran speaks on your behalf then I think he believes in that person because I dont think he would put his reputation on the line if someone is not worth it.The fact that he even gave his opinion [to the Rangers] about me means a lot, he added. We are talking about someone who has been a very important person in my career and is a future Hall of Famer. When someone who has had an 18-year career at that level speaks, people listen; his opinion matters. ' ' '
