Jones, 19, was earlier fourth in the rope final in Delhi, which was won by Cypriot Chrystalleni Trikomiti. The ball final was won by Australian Naazmi Johnston, with Jones fourth. And in the ribbon final Trikomiti grabbed her second gold medal with a superb performance while Johnston won silver and Koon took bronze. Jones was sixth in that ribbon final with England's Lynne Hutchinson dropping her ribbon twice and finishing in a disappointing eighth place.
