Manu Bhaker missed a historic hat-trick at Paris Olympics 2024, finishing fourth in the women's 25m sports pistol event after a heroic performance.

India won three medals in shooting in the Paris Olympics 2024.

Double Olympic medallist pistol shooter Manu Bhaker has said that the struggles she had faced early on in her career has helped her develop patience and resilience.

According to Manu Bhaker, who won two bronze medals at the Paris Olympics 2024, there were 'quite some haters' who commented negatively on the ramp walk.

Manu Bhaker said that her break from the shooting after Olympics was pre-decided by her and her coach Jaspal Rana.

Paris Olympics medallists Manu Bhaker, Sarabjot Singh and Swapnil Kusale have decided to skip the tournament.

Manu Bhaker's personal coach Jaspal Rana on Wednesday gave full credit to Indian Olympic Association chief PT Usha for the young shooter's historic twin medals at Paris Games.

Manu also shared the origin story of her introduction to shooting, and that the sport had been introduced to her while she was bunking a class in school.

Usha on Monday said that it was "deeply concerning" that the EC members failed to honour Olympic medallists and accused the Finance Committee of blocking funds.

The IOA had planned to award each individual medallist between Rs 50 lakh and Rs 1 crore, with coaches receiving Rs 15 lakh to Rs 25 lakh as part of the official felicitation.
