ISSF Junior World Cup | Manu Bhaker secures 10m Air Pistol gold on the last shot

The 16-year-old shooter overtook Hirunphoem on the very last shot, adding the Junior World Cup gold medal to the one she had won earlier this month at the ISSF World Cup in Guadalajara (MEX).

Bhaker finished with a total of 235.9 points while Hirunphoem — who previously created a new qualification world record with 576 points — took silver with 234.9. The podium was then completed by China's Lu Kaiman, who posted a score of 214.2. After leading the match by as much as 2.2 points, Bhaker fired six consecutive shots outside the 10th ring, which saw her one point behind Hirunphoem with only two shots left. At this crucial juncture, Bhaker did just about enough with shots of 9.6 and 9.8 to overtake her rival, who dropped her game when it mattered with a final shot of 7.9.

India's Cheema, Rana and Anmol also pocketed the team gold, beating Liu, Wang and Tang -- who claimed silver for China -- and Jawanda, Arya and Adarsh Singh who won bronze for India. India are second in the medal’s tally with 12 medals while trailing China who have 14.
