Manu Bhaker on Sunday became the first Indian woman and the fifth overall to achieve an Olympic medal in shooting, marking India's entry into the Paris Olympics 2024 by securing a bronze medal in the women's individual 10m air pistol event. The most recent Indian athletes to earn medals at the Olympics were Gagan Narang and Vijay Kumar, who achieved this feat at the London 2012 Olympics.

The 22-year-old completed her performance with 22 shots, accumulating a score of 221.7. She narrowly missed surpassing second-place Yeji Kim by just 0.1 points in the penultimate series.
