It's Great To See Shooting Sport Now Getting Attention, Says Olympic Medallist Manu Bhaker
Indian Spicy Veg Roll: After a historic campaign at the Paris Olympics in which she won two bronze medals, pistol shooter Manu Bhaker expressed her delight at seeing shooting gaining global attention, despite not being a visually appealing sport for spectators.
Manu created history at the 2024 Paris Olympics by becoming the first Indian to win two medals -- Women's 10m Air Pistol and Mixed 10m Air Pistol -- in a single Olympic campaign post-Independence. She also became the first Indian woman to win a medal in shooting at the Olympics.
In an email interaction with IANS, the Olympic medallist shooter highlighted how Turkish shooter Yousuf Dikec's calm demeanour at the range drew global attention, boosting the sport's international recognition.
