The duo faced off in the gold-medal shoot-off, and it was the English shooter who came out on top this lunchtime with a score of 94, two ahead of the Indian.

Kerwood's England teammate Rachel Parish completed the podium after beating Canada's Cynthia Meyer in the third-place shoot-off for the bronze medal.

The 26-year-old also took part in the London Olympics two years ago, but missed out on a medal.
