The previous Asian benchmark of 30, which belonged to Qatar, had been established earlier this year in January.

China's Qi Ying and Sun Yunong collected the bronze medal after finishing with a score of 23.

The victory brings a memorable conclusion to the Asian Games campaign for the 26-year-old Neeru, who on Tuesday became the first Indian woman shooter to secure an individual trap medal at the event when she won gold with an Asian record.
