Once again ISSF has out done themselves by making the finals even more confusing for both the athletes and spectators.New competition formats in Pistol/Rifle/Shotgun, which were approved by the ISSF Executive Committee, come into force. They are now posted on the ISSF website and will apply to all ISSF competitions from 1 January 2022.
I guess I will never be in such a competition, so I don't really care. But... why??c) MEDAL MATCH:
This stage is fired in the Standing position, ONLY.
• All points achieved in the Semifinal are zeroed.
• 4 series of 2 shots fired in 100 seconds per series.
• The total score in each 2-shot series is used to allocate points awarded according to
ranking from 4 – 1. Equal scores are awarded equal points (higher level).
• After 4 series, 3rd (bronze medal) and 4th place decided and the athletes retire from the firing-line.
Medal Match continues to decide the gold and silver medals.
