Xinhuanet's London Olympics news report on July 29 (Reporters Liu Kai and Lin Deren) Like a brilliant Hollywood blockbuster, the women's 10-meter air pistol final of the London Olympics on the 29th was so exciting. Guo Wenjun, the 2008 Olympic champion and famous Chinese player, achieved a shocking comeback and successfully defended his title with his heroic performance in the last shot.

The match that day was full of ups and downs. After Guo Wenjun scored an eye-popping 8.0 in the first shot, he gave up the lead in the preliminaries and fell behind to third place. "This is indeed a serious mistake, but I wanted to make good use of the next nine bullets," Guo Wenjun said after the game. "Fortunately, I handled it relatively calmly."

Guo Wenjun, who missed the first shot, then started to catch up, and shot 10.8 with the second shot, narrowing the gap with his opponent. However, the French girl Gobeville and the 2004 Athens Olympic champion and Ukrainian star Kostevich also performed well. Especially Gobeville exerted her strength in the second half, scoring 10.8 and 10.6 consecutive rings. By the end of the ninth shot, she had occupied the top spot and was 0.5 rings ahead of second-placed Guo Wenjun.

The crucial last shot, the atmosphere of the game is suffocating. "This is the time when the will and quality of athletes are most tested," said Duan Shijie, deputy head of the Chinese delegation who was watching the game.

In fact, Guo Wenjun experienced a similar test in the preliminaries. Among the 40 shots in the preliminaries, Guo Wenjun was in excellent condition. He only shot 4 9-rings in the first 27 shots, and the rest were all 10-rings. If we continue playing in this state, it is very possible to break the world record of 393 rings in the qualifying rounds. However, Guo Wenjun, who "had some ideas", shot six nines in the next dozen shots, but in the last shot, she was under great pressure and only shot eight. Although he is still ranked first, he is one ring ahead of his opponent.

However, this Shaanxi girl with excellent adjustment ability did not let this scene happen again in the final. In the last shot of the final, Guo Wenjun was calm and composed and shot an astonishing 10.8 points, while Goberville only shot 8.8 points under heavy pressure. In this way, Guo Wenjun achieved a lead of 1.5 rings and successfully won the championship. Her total score was 488.1 rings.

"The game will not be over until the last bullet is fired. This is the charm of shooting," Guo Wenjun, who finally won, smiled brightly.

After ten shots, Goberville's score was 486.6 points, tied for second with Kostevic. In the extra round, Goberville scored 10.6 points, leading his opponent's 9.7 points, and finally won the runner-up.

Another Chinese player who entered the finals, Su Yuling, ranked sixth with a total score of 484.6 rings.
