NEW DELHI: Prithviraj Tondaiman, an Indian shooter, participated in the men's trap shooting event on Tuesday at the Paris Olympics. Despite achieving a flawless score of 25 in the final two rounds, Tondaiman's performance was not enough to secure a spot in the finals.
Across the five rounds of the qualification stage, Tondaiman accumulated a total score of 118 out of a possible 125 shots. This placed him in the 21st position among the 30 competitors vying for a place in the finals, which was limited to the top six shooters, PTI reported.
Tondaiman demonstrated his skills at the Chateauroux Shooting Centre. The 37-year-old athlete fired rounds of 22, 25, 21, 25, and 25 throughout the five-round qualification, with three of those rounds taking place on the second day.
During the first day of the qualification round, Tondaiman, the sole Indian participant in the men's trap competition, recorded scores of 22, 25, and 21. However, his performance on that day placed him in the 30th position.
