Following Swapnil Kusale's historic bronze medal win in shooting at the ongoing Paris Olympics, the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) president PT Usha lauded the shooter for his performance and talked about her own emotions while catching up with the match.
Kusale won the bronze medal in the men's 50m rifle 3P event at the ongoing Paris Olympics on Thursday. Kusale also became the first Indian shooter to win a medal in the men's 50m rifle 3P event.
Following the win, while talking to ANI, Usha said, "It was very exciting and a proud moment for us. I was so nervous and my heart was beating so fast because at one point he was sixth, he climbed upto fourth.
From there, he reached the second spot and then went down to fourth. The last minute was exciting." Usha expressed happiness with the shooting contingent, who has grabbed all the three (all bronze) medals won at Paris so far, saying that they are making history by putting up their best-ever Olympics performance.
