Anjum Moudgil, the rifle-wielding Zen

Firstpost  

Anjum Moudgil was the first Indian athlete to secure a quota for Tokyo Olympics 2020 with her silver at the 2018 World Championships in Changwon. On her good days, Moudgil’s head doesn’t do much talking; she eases into the rarefied zone that athletes vouch for, and shooting follows. In their early days, the only words the coach would hear from Moudgil was a faint “good morning.” “It was kind of weird. She made time for everyone and told us to never lose sight of our target in life.” A few years on, Babuta made it to the India juniors, while Moudgil graduated to the seniors’ category. Moudgil has always been a 3P shooter, but her recent success in the 10-metre air rifle category had sparked conversations over her shooting in the latter event.
