- For me it was very interesting match in the event which will be in Paris-2024, - said the winner Angad Vir Singh BAJWA after the Final who also won the Skeet Team Men the day before.

- I like this new format because you play as a team. And this is very spectator friendly I should say, - continued Angad.

Team India continues leading the competition with 14 medals, 7 of which are Gold.

- We have big progress in Shotgun, I don’t think that we won so many medals earlier. Here are more young athletes come to the game, that’s the reason I think, ”said Angad Vir Singh BAJWA.

The competition continues tomorrow with team events included into the ISSF tournament program for the first time. Athletes from 53 nations participate in the World Cup which is an unprecedented number in current conditions.
