NEW DELHI: Little-known Sonam Maskar provided the silver lining on a rather disappointing day for India with the Kolhapur shooter finishing second in the 10m air rifle event on the opening day of the ISSF World Cup Final on Tuesday.
The 22-year-old, who started competitive shooting just two years back and came into the national squad only last year, fired a superb 252.9 in the final with top-notch scores to finish behind Paris Olympics silver medallist, China's Huang Yuting, who shot a world record final score of 254.5.
