NEW DELHI : India’s Apurvi Chandela shot her way to a second successive gold medal and emerged as the ‘Shooter of the Tournament’ in the Swedish Cup Grand Prix in Savsjo, Sweden.
The 23-year-old Chandela shot 208.9 in the final to clinch the top prize in women’s 10-metre tri-series event.
Chandela, who has already secured a quota for the Rio Olympics, won her first gold medal of the tournament late Tuesday with a world record score of 211.2, to surpass the feat of Chinese Olympic gold medallist Yi Siling (211).
Chandela had clinched the gold in the National Championships held last month.
She had won an Olympic quota place for India after winning a bronze in the ISSF World Cup in Changwon, Korea in April last year.
