Earlier last month, Chaudhary became the youngest Indian shooter to bag a gold medal in the Asian Games when he clinched the yellow metal in Jakarta in the 10m air pistol event. At the Jakabaring International Shooting Range in Palembang, the Grade XI student won the yellow metal with a Games record 240.7. Making his Asian Games debut, Saurabh was in a class of his own as India continued to reap a rich haul in the shooting range.

Competing in a quality field which included many Olympic and world champions, Saurabh defied the odds to pull it off. He topped in the qualification round, scoring 586, two points ahead of Korea's former Olympic champion Jin Jongoh.
In the second position for most of the 24-shot final, Saurabh grabbed the lead after Matsuda fired 8.9 in his penultimate shot. The Indian went ahead with a 10.2 off his penultimate shot and 10.4 in his last which gave him the decisive lead.
