Renowned Indian shooter Manu Bhaker secured a spot in the final of the women's 10m air pistol event at the Paris Olympics on Saturday. She displayed exceptional skill, finishing third after the qualification round with an impressive score of 580 points and 27 inner 10s. Unfortunately, her compatriot Rhythm Sangwan fell short, finishing in 15th place.
Rhythm showed promise with a strong start, scoring 97 points in the first series of shots. However, a dip in performance during the second series, where she scored 92 points, caused her to slide down the rankings.
The top position in the qualification round was claimed by Hungary's Veronika Major, closely followed by Oh Ye Jin of South Korea. The highly anticipated final round is scheduled to commence at 3:30 PM IST on Sunday, July 28th.
