Russian Yulia Zykova joins the gold club

Wednesday finished with a heavy rain in the evening. Fortunately all shooting events had been done and athletes saved from the rain. When morning arose the weather had changed dramatically. No rain, but quite rough wind and the temperature had sunk down nearly by +20C, but it felt cooler. The wind made shooting more challenging, but also more interesting when you have to find calmer moment to shoot.

Considering the weather condition (wind) the best result of the qualification, 1174 (392, 395,387) which Jolyn Beer from Germany made was excellent. The second in qualification was Serbian Sanja Vukasinnovic (1168), third was Czech Nikola Mazurova with same result but she lost in inner tens (57 - 54). Russian Federation received two places to the finals, Polina Khorosheva (1166) and Yulia Zykova (1165). British Seonaid McIntosh (1163), Jenny Stene (NOR -1162) and Austrian Franziska Peer (1161) were the last three who received the place for finals.
