Rudrankksh Strikes Gold In 10m Air Rifle At ISSF World Cup
International Shooting Sport Federation: Former world champion Rudrankksh Balasaheb Patil struck his second individual International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF) World Cup gold, shooting 252.9 in a pillar to post effort to win the men’s 10m air rifle final on Sunday, competition day four of the first Shooting World Cup leg in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The young Indian champ was constantly hunted down by the great and in-form Hungarian rifle shooter Istvan Peni, fresh from a men’s 3P gold a couple of days back, but pulled out the big shots when it mattered in a sharp performance.
The host country’s Marcelo Julian Gutierezz won a popular bronze, bowing out after the 22nd shot of the 24-shot eight-man final, with his score on 230.1 at that stage, 0.4 behind Peni and 1.6 behind leader Patil.
