Manu Bhaker became the first Indian woman to win a medal in shooting at the Olympics as she clinched the 10m air pistol bronze at the Paris Olympics 2024 on Sunday. Overall, she was the fifth shooter from India to win a medal at the Olympics after Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore (2004), Abhinav Bindra (2008), Vijay Kumar (2012) and Gagan Narang (2012). The 22-year-old was impressive in qualification as she shot 27 inner 10s, the most in the field. The brilliant run of form continued as she provided tremendous fight in the final on Sunday and ended up falling short of the silver medal fight by the slightest of margins.
