Jr Shooting World Cup: Raiza Wins Skeet Silver As India Extend Medal-a-day Streak
International Shooting Sport Federation: Olympian Raiza Dhillon delivered under challenging and tricky conditions to win a silver medal in the women’s skeet event at the ongoing International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF) Junior World Cup in Suhl, Germany, on Thursday.
The Indian shot 51 targets in the 60-shot final, to finish behind Phoebe Bodley-Scott of Great Britain, who shot 53. Home favourite Annabella Hettmer won bronze.
Raiza’s effort saw her win her first individual ISSF World Cup medal at any level as she played out her last junior year. It was also India’s third medal of the prestigious Suhl Junior World Cup and the second silver to go with Kanak’s gold on Wednesday in the women’s air pistol.
