Manu Bhaker and Esha Singh Shine in Shooting Olympic Trials
In the latest Shooting Olympic trials held at the Madhya Pradesh Academy, Manu Bhaker and Esha Singh showcased their exceptional skills in the 25-metre sports pistol event. Both shooters scored an impressive 586, solidifying their dominance in the competition.
With only the best three out of four scores considered for selection, Manu and Esha were comfortably ahead of their competitors. Despite a strong performance in the previous trials, world record holder Rhythm Sangwan struggled to keep up with scores of 574 and 566 in Delhi. Although she improved with scores of 586 and 584 in the recent trials, catching up to Manu and Esha proved to be a challenging task.
While Manu and Esha are set to continue their stellar performances in the upcoming air pistol trials, Rhythm has shifted her focus to securing a spot in the event as she aims for a spot in Paris.
In the men’s 25-metre rapid fire pistol event, Anish Bhanwala emerged as the top performer with a score of 583 in the fourth trial. Despite tough competition from Ankur Goel and Adarsh Singh, Anish’s consistent performance set him apart from the rest.
As the trials progress, the competition remains fierce as shooters strive to secure their spots for the upcoming Olympics. With each trial bringing new challenges and opportunities, the road to Paris is paved with determination and skill.
