Stay focussed on three crucial areas – breathing, standing position and balance. This has been the mantra for the gifted shooter Dhanush Srikanth who won the men’s 10m air rifle gold in the ISSF Junior World Cup in Suhl (Germany) recently.
In an exclusive chat with The Hindu, 19-year-old Dhanush (hearing impaired) said it was never easy to compete with normal shooters and that he had to come to grips with many technical issues too.
“I tried to stay calm and keep my mind free of any tensions. Just wanted to give off my best, which was my pre-tournament goal too. And, I am really delighted to win a gold,” he said.
