Devanshi Rana and Chaudhary Saurabh dominated the 10m Air Pistol Mixed Team Junior event, while Vanesa Hockova and Emil Kjelgaard Petersen climbed atop the podium in the two Skeet events. The last gold medal of the competition, then, went to Italy’s Marco Suppini, who ruled the 50m Rifle 3 Positions Men Junior final.

10m Air Pistol Mixed Team Junior
In the opening match, India swept the Air Pistol events in Suhl, taking both gold and silver in the mixed team event and adding it to the individual golds secured by 16-year-old Chaudhary Saurabh and 16-year-old Manu Bhaker.
Teamed up with Devanshi Rana (18), Saurabh climbed atop the mixed team podium, totalizing 478.9 points after standing in 1st place all along the match. The second Indian team in the final — composed by Bhaker and Anmol Anmol (19) — climbed back up from the second-to-last to the 2nd position, taking advantage of the fact that the Chinese team fired their 44th shot out of the 60-second limit, sliding down two positions and being eliminated in 4th place.
The podium was then completed by Republic of Korea’s Kim Woori (20) and Lim Hojin (17), who scored 37.7 points in their second-to-last series and switched from the silver to the bronze position.
Bhaker and Anmol concluded with 474.4 points, while Kim and Lim signed off with 414.1.

The Czech shooter, indeed, took silver with 55 hits, bagging the first ISSF medal of his young career.
