Doha: Manu Bhaker on Tuesday won gold in women’s 10m air pistol event while Vivaan Kapoor and Manisha Keer won the yellow metal in junior trap mixed event at the Asian Shooting Championships here. Their wins came after Deepak Kumar won bronze in men’s 10m air rifle event, thus ensuring India’s 10th Tokyo Olympics quota in shooting. After Divyansh Singh Panwar, Deepak is the second Indian shooter to earn an Olympic quota in the event. Manu and any other Indian shooter was ineligible to win an Olympic quota as the country has already exhausted them in earlier competitions. (IANS)
