Esha Singh, Manu Bhaker, Divya Subbaraju clinch women's 25m pistol team gold at ISSF World Championship
- On Tuesday, India's Esha Singh, Manu Bhaker, and Divya Subbaraju clinched the women's 25m pistol team gold medal at the ISSF World Championships in Doha, Qatar, with a combined score of 1761.
- India finished ahead of South Korea, which secured silver with 1748 points, and Vietnam, which claimed bronze with 1745. Esha led the charge with 590, while Manu contributed 587 and Divya added 584.
- Despite the team success, Esha and Manu failed to reach the podium in the individual final on Tuesday. Esha finished eighth while Manu narrowly missed bronze, ending fourth with 27 hits.
- Missing the podium squandered an opportunity to secure quota places for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. India has secured only one quota place so far through men's 10m air pistol shooter Jaypal Malviya.
- India's broader campaign in Doha has been marred by underwhelming performances, particularly in rifle events. Rifle shooter Shambhavi Kshirsagar's disqualification over equipment failure has intensified concerns about the high-performance program.
