Rhythm Sangwan wins India's record-making 16th Paris Olympics quota
Rhythm Sangwan won the 16th Paris Olympics quota in shooting on Thursday as she won a bronze medal in the 25m sports pistol event at the Asia Qualifiers. With Sangwan’s bronze and quota, India have registered its highest-ever number of quota places for an Olympics. The previous best was 15 quotas for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
In Rhythm’s category, China’s Yang Jiin won the gold with a score of 41, while Korea’s Kim Yeji came second with 32 points.
But a third-placed finish with 28 points was enough for the Indian to clinch a Paris 2024 quota.
Olympic Quota No. 1⃣6⃣ in SHOOTING!
Rhythm Sangwan earns a place for Team India in women's 25m Pistol. Congratulations!
