Chinese shooter Xie Yu won gold in the men's 10m air pistol event at the Paris Olympics, finishing with 240.9 points, narrowly beating Italy's Federico Nilo Maldini, who scored 240.0 points. Xie's victory marks China's second gold in shooting and the third overall at these Games, following the gold won by Huang Yuting and Sheng Lihao in the mixed team event the previous day. Despite hopes for a clean sweep in shooting, the Chinese team did not medal in the women's events. Xie expressed pride in his achievement, having trained extensively for this moment and showcasing calmness during the competition. The bronze medal was secured by Italy's Paolo Monna, who shared an emotional moment with Maldini on the podium. The men's and women's 10m air rifle finals are set to take place on Monday.
