Shooting Nationals: Haryana Teenager Suruchi Stars With Triple Gold In Women’s Air Pistol
National Shooting Championship Competitions: Haryana teenager Suruchi was the star of the day with a triple gold performance in the women’s air pistol competitions in the ongoing 67th National Shooting Championship Competitions (NSCC) 2024 at the Dr. Karni Singh Shooting Range in the national capital on Friday.
The daughter of an army veteran from Jhajjar, who began shooting sports five years ago in the same range as double Olympic bronze medallist Manu Bhaker, won her first-ever senior national title, with a score of 243.1 in the women’s 10m air pistol final, before going on to add the junior and youth crowns for a memorable nationals outing. In the process, she bettered the silver effort in women’s air pistol, achieved in the previous nationals.
Suruchi went into the eight-woman final as the in-form shooter, topping the qualifications with a solid 585. It was a field full of seasoned pros, among them Olympian Rhythm Sangwan, reigning Asian Games champion Palak, India international Divya T.S., and junior world champion Sainyam to name a few.
