The Women’s 25m Pistol Team won a silver and the Men’s 50m Rifle 3 Positions team won a bronze. The tally now stands at 12 gold, nine silver and 13 bronze medals.

On the other, India ended their Paris 2024 Olympics quota quest. There were a total of two from the championship earlier, one in men’s 10m air rifle and one in men’s 50m 3 Positions.

In the Men’s 25m Rapid Fire Pistol, which had four Paris quotas up for grabs, India’s Vijayveer Sidhu shot 289 in the rapid-fire round for a total of 583 to finish 11th. Peter Florian of Germany took the eighth and final qualifying spot with a score of 584. London Olympic silver medallist Vijay Kumar shot 581 in his comeback championship to finish in 13th spot.

The Women’s 25m Pistol team comprising Rhythm Sangwan, Manu Bhaker and Abhidnya Ashok Patil first qualified for the top eight stage with a sixth-place finish in stage one of qualification where they totalled 873. Ukraine topped the stage with 880. They then came second with a combined effort of 443 in stage two with China topping with 444, setting up a gold medal clash with the Indians.

The Chinese however, were too good for the Indians and did not offer them a whiff of a chance in the decider winning it 16-0.
