The 27-year-old shooter didn’t start off well, however, she pulled off a stunning comeback from being at the 13th place to the third place.
She missed the gold medal by a mere gap of 0.1 as her final shot was 219.3.
Another Indian shooter, 16-year-old Manu Bhaker couldn’t make it to the top and was eliminated at the fifth place with a score of 176.2. But she made her country proud in the last few days where she performed remarkably and shot brilliantly in the qualifications and cracked the finals.
