Indian shooter Zoravar Singh Sandhu made history by winning bronze in men’s trap at the ISSF World Championship Shotgun 2025 in Athens, Greece. Competing in tough weather and light conditions, Zoravar hit 31 of 50 targets in the final match, finishing behind Croatia’s Josip Glasnovic and Spain’s Andres Garcia. 

 

 

National Rifle Association of India President Kalikesh Singh Deo hailed the win as a historic moment, crediting Zoravar’s dedication and the efforts of coach Peter Wilson’s team. This is country’s third medal in the men’s trap shooting events at the Shotgun World Championships. Manavjeet Singh Sandhu won the gold medal in the men’s trap at Zagreb 2006 while Karni Singh won a silver in the 1962 championships held in Cairo.
