ISSF World Cup Rifle / Pistol · Munich, GER

Tokyo 2020 quotas go to Ukraine and Italy.

19 year old Filip Nepejchal has won Gold in the 10m Air Rifle Final in Munich, making it a hat trick of World Cup career victories in the event.

Nepejchal was in a tight battle for the top spot with Croatian athlete Petar Corsa, but five very strong shots at the end of the final saw him prevail.

Corsa took the silver medal, with China’s Yang Haoran winning the bronze.

Ukrainian Oleh Tsarkov and Italian Marco Suppini didn’t make the podium, but fifth and sixth places were enough for both to receive Olympic quotas.

The ISSF World Cup in Munich continues on Wednesday when there are three final matches; 50m Rifle 3 Positins Women's, 10m Air Pistol Women and 25m Rapid Fire Pistol Men.
