Suruchi Singh (born 28 April 2006) [1] also known as Suruchi Phogat, is an Indian sports shooter specializing in the 10-meter air pistol event. [2] She has four golds at the World Cup and two bronzes at the Asian Championships. [3] Singh gained recognition by securing four back-to-back gold medals at the 2025 World Cup. [4]
Singh was born in the Sasroli village of Jhajjar district, Haryana, into a family with a strong sporting lineage. Her father, Havildar Inder Singh, initially aspired for her to pursue wrestling, inspired by his cousin, Virender Singh, a Deaflympics gold medalist. But she gravitated towards shooting and began her training aged 13 at the Guru Dronacharya Shooting Academy in Bhiwani under coach Suresh Singh. During the pandemic, she kept her practice going at a makeshift range. [5]
