Rahi Sarnobat claimed victory in the 25m Pistol Women's Final at the ISSF World Cup in Munich and claiming an Olympic quota place for Tokyo 2020 ... Other hands, a disappointing end for Manu as she was looking in good nick after qualifying for the final with strong finish ... She was leading with Rahi after the 6 rounds with 21 hits ... After that, her pistol malfunctioned and she failed to hit a single shot in her next 5 shots ... She was on the brink of qualifying but was in tears ... Hard on her confidence, wishing for a strong response from Manu in the next tournament ... Before that, Rahi qualified for the final on the 4th position with 586 pts and Manu on the 5th with 585 pts.

What a performance! 17-year-old Saurabh Chaudhary took gold at the 10m Air Pistol competition beating his own world record ... He scored 246.3 pts. in the final was 1.3 pts. better than his score in New Dehli earlier this year ... No quota for us in this event as we already grabbed full 2 quota places from previous World cups ... Shahzar finished on the 5th position ... Before that in the qualifying, Saurabh qualified on the 2nd position with consistent shooting and scored 586 pts ... Shahzar Rizvi scored a final 100 pts round to qualify on the 5th position with 583 pts.
