Paris Olympics: A study in contrasts, Manu Bhaker & Sarabjot Singh make magic on the shooting range
Paris Olympics: A study in contrasts, Manu Bhaker & Sarabjot Singh make magic on the shooting range:
She likes riding horses. He prefers fast cars. She plays the violin. He grooves to Punjabi pop. She juggles balls, three or four in one go. He sits in a dark room staring at a candle. She sketches. He pumps iron.
Manu Bhaker and Sarabjot Singh are as opposite as two people can be. But together, the two 22-year-olds from Haryana are a formidable pair that can take down the best in the world.
South Koreans Lee Wonho and Oh ye Jin, whom they faced at the shooting ranges of Chateauroux on Tuesday, had done well in the 10m air pistol individual men’s and women’s categories, finishing 4th and 1st respectively just two days ago. But the Indian duo was better than the sum of its parts.
