Manu Bhaker Aims for Another Medal in Paris Olympics

Manu Bhaker, the rising star of Indian shooting, continues to make waves at the Paris Olympics 2024. After securing a historic bronze medal in the women's 10m air pistol event on Sunday, Bhaker has now qualified for the final of the 25m pistol mixed event alongside her partner Sarabjot Singh.

The duo secured their spot in the final by finishing third in the qualification round held in Chateauroux, France, on Monday. They will now compete for another medal in the 10m air pistol mixed team event on Tuesday, aiming to add to India's medal tally. 

Bhaker's bronze medal on Sunday was a significant achievement, making her the first Indian woman to win an Olympic medal in shooting. This success comes as a remarkable comeback after her disappointing performance in the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, where she faced technical issues with her pistol.

Hailing from Jhajjar district in Haryana, Bhaker has shown tremendous resilience and skill. Her journey from the setback in Tokyo to the podium in Paris is a testament to her determination and hard work. The 22-year-old shooter's performance has not only brought glory to her home state of Haryana but has also inspired aspiring athletes across the country. 

As Bhaker prepares for the mixed event final, the nation watches with bated breath, hoping for another stellar performance from this young talent. Her success so far in the Paris Olympics has already etched her name in the annals of Indian sports history.
