She is followed by Galina AVRAMENKO (UKR) with 377/400. Galina was very unsatisfied with her result; she said: “It is a bad result anyway, despite the second place.” It seems that for next ECH she intends to be in better shape.

Let us be kind with them: despite this first 50m ECH for women, they are competitors and always want to get through to perfection. I am convinced that our Shooting Family should be happy with these demanding athletes.
