Rubina Francis won bronze in the P2 – Women’s 10m Air Pistol SH1 event.
Rubina Francis added to India’s medal tally on Saturday when she won bronze in the P2 – Women’s 10m Air Pistol SH1 event at the 2024 Paris Paralympics.
Francis had qualified in seventh place during the qualification round with a score of 556-13x after trailing behind the top eight for most of the round, before shooting well in the end to secure her spot in the final.
The 25-year-old shooter began well in the final to move into second place, just 0.1 points behind the leader, but faltered in the middle to move into fourth place. However, shoddy shooting from her opponents saw her enter the medal spots and despite her being unable to shoot well to reach the last round, Francis secured the bronze medal with a total score of 211.1 points.
At the Tokyo Paralympics three years ago, Francis had also finished in seventh place during the qualification round before finishing seventh in the final.
