Esha Singh fired a world record score of 43 to clinch gold in the Women’s 25m Pistol event at the ISSF World Cup in Munich.
There are many videos of the winning moment.
I like this one because her eyes are like lasers. Unwavering. Unforgiving. You don’t want to come in her way.
But what struck me most was that she looked less like an athlete and more like a yogi in deep meditation.
You can tell from the way she squeezes the trigger that this sport is ultimately not about the pistol.
It’s about mastering the mind, the breath and the nerves.
And what a pleasure it is to see an Indian sportsperson not merely win on the world stage, but shatter a world record while doing so.
Congratulations, Esha.
Records are made to be broken. Including your own.
Keep pushing the boundaries.
💪🏽🇮🇳
