Manu Bhaker, Esha Singh fall short in 10m air pistol final at World Championships
New Delhi: Double Olympic-medallist shooter Manu Bhaker and multiple Asian Games medal winner Esha Singh suffered a meltdown in the women’s 10m air pistol final as the country’s top-two shooters could not win a medal in the ISSF World Championships, here on Monday.
Manu, winner of the 10m air pistol individual and mixed team bronze at the Paris Olympics, had things going her way in the final before a poor 8.8 on the 14th shot saw her take a mighty tumble from the top spot to seventh as she finished with a score of 139.5.
Esha, who recently won the World Cup gold in Ningbo, China, too could not turn her........
