Indian shooter Esha Singh clinched her maiden individual World Championship medal — a bronze in the women’s 25m pistol — but Paris Olympics double medallist Manu Bhaker yet again missed out on a podium finish, here on Friday.
The Indian shot a score of 30 in the final, to finish behind in-form Chinese Yao Qianxun (silver, score: 38) and Korea’s reigning Olympic Champion Yang Jiin (gold, score: 40).
Esha’s effort came as India wrapped up engagements in the 10 Olympic events on schedule at the ongoing tournament with a historic haul of one gold, three silver and as many bronze medals. Overall, India lie third on the table with three gold, five silver and four bronze medals.
