The New Indian Express
|April 18, 2024
INDIAN shooters have been spot on in the ongoing Olympic cycle.
The talented bunch, especially the rifle and pistol shooters, have navigated numerous competitions, including gruelling national trials, to be in a position of strength.
But their job is far from over.
The top-five shooters in the two disciplines will be involved in a series four in total of Olympic Shooting Trials (OST), with the opening two trials (T1) kicking off on Thursday at the Dr Karni Singh Shooting Ranges in New Delhi. The magnitude of these four trials cannot be understated. It's now or never for the 37 shooters who'll be in contention.
There's bound to be some form of pressure as they eye Olympic dreams. All of them have earned their spots and they'll be hoping for one final push.
