Aishwary Pratap Singh Tomar was the epitome of composure as he chased the gold medal in the 10m Air Rifle final of the 37th National Games. With two shots left, the 23-year was .3 points behind Sandeep Singh of Services and needed something special to clinch the gold medal.
The Madhya Pradesh shooter responded with shots of 10.6 and 10.4 to upstage the leader and bag his second gold of the National Games, having won the 50m Rifle 3-position event a few days ago.
“Considering the fact that I haven’t practised the 10m air rifle much in the past month (he was competing in the 50m rifle 3Ps event at the Asian Games), I am happy to win the gold medal. This adds to my gold in the 50m rifle 3Ps event, so I’m really happy to have both gold medals and improve on my silver and bronze (in 10m air rifle and 50m 3Ps respectively) medals from the last National Games,” he said after beating a strong field that included 2022 World Champion Rudrankksh Balasaheb Patil.
