Gear up for some Olympic celebration! Manu Bhaker sets a record by winning two medals, making history! Find out how she made waves this year!

The Paris 2024 Olympics is truly turning out to be a spectacular event for India, with our very own Manu Bhaker doing the country proud yet again! On Day 4 of the Games, this young shooting sensation cemented her name in the record books as the first Indian athlete in the post-independence era to snag two medals in one Olympic edition. Who knew those calm and composed nerves would make her such a formidable competitor as she captured the bronze in the 10m air pistol event? The excitement doesn't stop there; she has teamed up with fellow shooter Sarabjot Singh to bag India's second medal together, and their journey is nothing short of inspiring!

In a thrilling match filled with suspense, Bhaker and Singh went head-to-head against South Korea and emerged victorious, proving that teamwork indeed makes the dream work. This dynamic duo's triumph in the 10m air pistol mixed team event showed us that the future of Indian shooting sports is bright and brimming with potential. Manu expressed her humble feelings post-victory, stating that the title of ‘legend’ feels too grand for now. No doubt, though, her achievements are anything but ordinary!

But let’s take a moment to delve into some history. Before Manu, there was Norman Pritchard—India's first Olympian whose achievements in the 1900 Paris Olympics are still debated today. Pritchard earned two silver medals, but amidst the haze of colonialism, his true nationality has long been a topic of contention. Many wonder what his legacy would look like had he been solely celebrated as the athlete representing India without any political strings attached. His story adds a fascinating layer to India’s Olympic history.

As we bask in the glory of the moment, it’s essential to recognize that Bhaker’s accomplishments not only symbolize personal victory but also the resilience and dedication of countless athletes striving for excellence. From Pritchard’s bittersweet past to Bhaker’s bright future, one thing is clear: India is making waves on the Olympic stage. Who knows what fantastic feats our athletes will achieve next? One can only wait with bated breath!
