DEHRADUN: On Monday morning, the 15-year-old from Karnataka turned up in the final, causing the biggest upset of National Games shooting competition.

Making light of a strong field that included Paris Olympics medallist Sarabjot Singh, Jonathan calmly shot 240.7 in the final, becoming the youngest pistol champion at the Games. Ravinder Singh of Services took silver (240.3) and the seasoned Gurpreet Singh (220.1) bronze. Sarabjot, who won the air pistol mixed team bronze with Manu Bhaker in Chateauroux, came fourth.
