Manu Bhaker

Manu Bhaker, 22, is the first Indian woman to win two medals at one Olympic Games. She won two bronze medals in air pistol shooting at Paris 2024.

At Tokyo 2020, luck eluded her as her pistol malfunctioned and she missed out on the finals. A reunion with long-time coach Jaspal Rana paid off, enabling her to claim those two medals in the French capital.

In 2018, at the age of 16, Manu became the youngest Indian to win a gold medal at the Shooting World Cup.

She has also been awarded the Khel Ratna - India's highest sports honour.
