The Skeet Women final will be conducted tomorrow morning at 9.30 AM. The decision was taken due to the visibility conditions affected by the fog.

The Skeet Women final – scheduled to take place this afternoon at 4.15 PM – has been postponed to tomorrow morning, 27 October, at 9.30 AM, due to the weather conditions. The decision was taken as the fog reduced the visibility down to a few meters this afternoon.

The qualifications were conducted regularly. Haley Dunn (USA), equalled the current world record with 74 hits out of 75 targets in spite of the fog. Following her, Danka Bartekova of Slovakia scored 73 targets making it into the final. Italy's Diana Bacosi and Albina Shakirova of the Russian Federation followed her with a score of 71 targets. The second Italian finalist Chiara Cainero made it with 70 hits, while China's Wei Meng beat the local medal hope Nurlana Jafarova of Azerbaijan 2 to 1 hits in a qualification shoot-off after they had tied with a score of 69 hits.
