Uttar Pradesh’s Akhil Sheoran secured the India’s fifth Paris Olympics quota in men’s 50m rifle 3 position event after he clinched the bronze medal in shooting at the ISSF World Championship 2023 in Baku, Azerbaijan.
At the Baku Olympic Shooting Range – one built in 2015 and considered one of the windiest ranges in the world, Sheoran took his time, rode the wave that have been these World Championships, and came out on the other side with a memorable bronze medal and a Paris Olympics quota to boot. He missed out on a silver by a sliver – 0.1 separating him and Petr Nymbursky, who had spent his World Championships chasing the Indian and finally caught up in the last shot reports Indian Express.
