Shooting Financial News

shooting contingent's biggest-ever medal haul at the Olympics here, after drawing a blank in the previous two editions in Rio de Janeiro and Tokyo, definitely calls for celebration but the fraternity is treading cautiously with an eye already on the 2028 Los Angeles Games. All of India's medal at the Paris Olympics have come via shooting thus far and there is a slight possibility of increasing the medal count to four by the time the competition ends on Monday. The squad has also overcome the mental barrier that prevented Manu Bhaker and Co from excelling on the biggest stage. The highlight of the campaign has been Manu's two medals, the second one shared with Sarabjot Singh in the 10m pistol mixed team.

Manu Bhaker missed the third medal in the Olympics. She finished at the fourth spot at the 25m sports pistol event with 28 points at the Chateauroux shooting range.

Bhaker dominated both the 'precision' and 'rapid' rounds in the qualification phase, achieving an aggregate score of 590. This performance placed her just behind Hungary's Veronika Major, who equaled the Olympic record with a score of 592. In the medal event Manu Bhaker was eliminated by Veronika Major, who secured the Bronze medal with 31 points. Bhaker's resurgence in form can be credited to her reunion with former shooter-turned-coach Jaspal Rana. She has already earned two bronze medals at these Games: one in the 10m women's air pistol and another in the 10m air pistol mixed team event alongside Sarabjot Singh.

She had already secured two bronze medals in — the 10m air pistol and the 10m air pistol mixed team events with partner Sarabjot Singh.

Manu Bhaker has still scripted history in Paris by becoming the first Indian player to play for three Olympic medals in one single Olympic edition and winning two. Prior to 25m event, the young shooter had won a bronze in the 10m air pistol shooting as well as another bronze in mixed 10 m air pistol shooting with Sarabjot Singh at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.
