Two-time Paris Olympics 2024 sensation Manu Bhaker, who kept entire nation hooked, earlier in the day on August 3, finished fourth and missed her third medal of the edition. Bhaker, who finished second in the qualifiers on Friday, missed her third podium finish by a whisker in the final. The day also saw Indian veteran Deepika Kumari aiming her way through to the quarterfinals of the women’s Individual event, whereas her compatriot Bhajan Kaur bowed out of the multi-sport spectacle.
