BY CEDELF TUPAS

The Philippines ' overall title-retention bid took off on a wrong note in the 24 th Southeast Asian Games yesterday as Filipino bets in precision shooting faltered, paving the way for their early exit at the Thailand Shooting and Clay target ranges in Bangkok .

Missing out on the medal rounds were Carolino Gonzales, who wound up 12th in the men's 10-meter air pistol; Susan Aguado who struggled in the 25-meter pistol, and Nikki Medina who ended up with six points out of the 50-meter prone gold.

Medina tallied 581 points for ninth place in the event topped by veteran Than Than Saw of Myanmar over Malaysian Mohd Taybi Nursuryani.
