Paris Olympics: You’ve Established A Remarkable Legacy, And This Is Only The Beginning, Says Bindra To Bhaker

Abhinav Bindra: Abhinav Bindra, India’s lone Olympics gold medal in shooting, lauded Manu Bhaker for an amazing Paris Olympics campaign, saying she has already established a remarkable legacy in the sport and this is just the beginning of it. Manu, the standout performer for India at the Paris Olympics currently with two bronze medals, finished her campaign with a fourth-place finish and agonisingly missed out on a medal in the women’s 25m pistol event on Saturday.

But she ended her time in Paris with two bronze medals -– in women’s 10m Air Pistol, which broke India’s 12-year drought for an Olympic medal, and in the 10m Air Pistol mixed event, making her the first athlete to win multiple medals at an Olympic Games edition for independent India.

“Manu, you have made the entire nation stand up and applaud your incredible achievement. Winning a third Olympic medal would have been an extraordinary feat, but what you’ve accomplished in Paris is truly monumental.”
