Bhavtegh Shoots Silver As Junior World Cup Concludes In Porpetto
International Shooting Sport Federation: Bhavtegh Singh Gill won silver in the men’s skeet event to give India its second medal of the competition, as curtains came down on the International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF) Junior World Cup in Porpetto, Italy, on Monday.
The Indian youngster, a silver winner at the Junior Asian Championships last year, shot 52 in the six-man final, to finish behind gold-winning American Benjamin Keller, who shot 56 out of the 60 allotted clay targets.
Bhavtegh’s effort added to the bronze won by Sabeera Haris in the junior women’s trap earlier, enabling India to finish third behind powerhouses USA and Italy in the medal standings, the National Rifle Association of India (NRAI) informed in a release on Monday.
