The Indian contingent at the Paris Olympics 2024 experienced a mixed bag of results on Day 3, with some highlights but also disappointments. In a positive development, the mixed team of Manu Bhaker and Sarabjot Singh secured a spot in the bronze medal match of the 10m air pistol event. The duo displayed impressive accuracy and composure in the qualifiers, finishing third with a score of 580 points, which earned them a place in the medal contention.
Their performance in the qualifiers highlighted the potential of the Indian shooting team. The duo will now face a formidable South Korean team in the bronze medal match. This match holds significant importance for the Indian team, representing a chance to secure a medal in the event. The pressure will be on Bhaker and Singh to deliver their best performance and fight for a podium finish.
However, the day also brought some setbacks for the Indian contingent. Other Indian athletes participated in various events, but failed to make significant progress. The archery team, for instance, bowed out of the competition, showcasing the need for strategic improvement and training. Despite the disappointments, the Indian team remains optimistic and focused on achieving success in the upcoming events.
