Arjun Babuta Narrowly Misses Olympic Medal

Indian shooter Arjun Babuta narrowly missed out on a medal at the Paris 2024 Olympics, finishing fourth in the men's 10m air rifle competition. Despite a strong start, Babuta's hopes were dashed by a crucial 9.5 shot in the final round, leaving him just short of the podium. Babuta's journey to the Olympics was marked by a significant recovery from a severe lower back injury that once had doctors doubting his ability to shoot again.

His performance, though heartbreaking, underscores his resilience and dedication to the sport.
