Oly qualifiers: Time for pistol shooters to step up
January 08, 2024
|The Morning Standard
INDIAN shooters have won as many as 13 quotas for the Paris Olympics so far and they'll have an opportunity to add to the tally during the Asian Championship (rifle/pistol) in Jakarta, Indonesia.
-
The continental event, which begins on Monday, will offer 16 Olympic quotas in total-two each in all the different rifle and pistol events.
Given that the country's shooters from the rifle section have already fetched the maximum number of quotas (eight), they'll most be vying for pride and ranking points. The onus will be on pistol shooters, who have just won three quotas (out of a possible eight) so far.
So the focus will be on the likes of Rhythm Sangwan, Esha Singh, Arjun Singh Cheema and Vijayveer Sidhu, to name a few.
