ISSF New Delhi Shooting World Cup 2019: Apurvi Chandela invokes inner Zen to ensure record-breaking start
FirstpostBoth Chandela and Zhao’s last shot was a 10.5, but the 1.1-point gap that she had opened up with Zhao with a crucial 10.8 in her penultimate attempt ensured her a golden start and a world record. New Delhi: Apurvi Chandela pulled the trigger 24 times on Saturday evening, and on 18 of those occasions, she peppered the ‘inner-10’ with scores of 10.5 or more, including a straight series of 11 shots. Chandela’s attention to the mental side of her craft stems from her inexplicable fourth-place finish at the Munich World Cup in May 2018, where she conceded the pole position on the penultimate shot with an accidental 5.9. There was nothing more to it.” Both Chandela and Zhao’s last shots were 10.5s, but the 1.1-point gap that she had opened up with Zhao with a crucial 10.8 in her penultimate attempt ensured her a golden start and a world record, held incidentally by Ruozhu until this evening.
