Shots of the Games rookie spooked favorites too – most importantly, I didn’t add any nonsense

Alytiškis was ranked 28th out of 6 competitors (624.3). The eight most accurate shooters advanced to the final, and Haoran Yang (632.7), a cinema that improved its Olympic record, won the ranking.

The first two series of shots (105 and 105.2) were the most successful for K. Girulis on Sunday, allowing him to claim the final eight for some time. However, during the remaining four qualifying rounds, the Lithuanian did not maintain his position.

“High school is really satisfying, because I competed with the strongest. There were few mistakes, just a bit of anger at myself for the four ‘nines’ that deducted maybe 2 or 3 points from the overall score. But I don’t think it would have gone up very high if it weren’t for those shots. I did what I was prepared for. I am happy to have achieved a very good result in this competition on my scale, “commented K. Girulis.

The heat of Tokyo in midsummer also responded to the shooters: the Lithuanian did not hide that the heat impeded concentration and the courage to drink water constantly.

“It was incredibly hot, it was difficult to control the focus. I needed a constant refreshment. But the experience is really good. You are not going to say that I have been confused, I have done foolish things. Although I had thoughts in my mind that I was doing a job that my future depended on, I managed them. And the coach praised me for introducing myself as much as I could. Yes, miracles happen, but not every day ”, K. Girulis was calm.

In Tokyo, he will continue to compete in the 50-meter three-position shooting competition, which will be classified on August 2.

In the final of the 10-meter air rifle race, American William Shaner (251.6), who set another Olympic record, triumphed on Sunday, Lihao Sheng (250.9) was second in the cinema and the winner of the classification, H. Yang, was satisfied with the bronze (229.4). .
