India's young and dynamic shooter Manu Bhaker has earned a place in the medal event of the women's 10 m air pistol and will be in action on Sunday, July 28.
Manu, 22, displayed an exuberant performance in the qualification round on Saturday, July 27 to find a place in the medal round.
The shooting sensation managed a total score of 580 and it proved to be enough to get her a place in the medal round as she finished third. She needs to keep up the good work in the medal round as the competition is going to shoot over the roof.
Manu is expected to face stiff competition from the world and Olympic record holder Jiang Ranxin of China. The other opponents that Manu needs to be wary of include Hungary's Veronika Major, who finished the qualification round on top and Li Xue of China and Oh Yeh Jin of South Korea.
