The countdown to the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics is on, and all eyes are on the 10-meter air rifle mixed team final, likely to award the first gold medal of the Games. 🎯
China's dynamic duos – Huang Yuting teaming up with Sheng Lihao, and Han Jiayu pairing with Du Linshu – are set to take aim and make their mark on the world's biggest stage. 🇨🇳🏅
Huang and Sheng, both rising stars in the shooting world, joined forces just over a year ago. Since then, they've been on fire, winning six out of seven competitions they've entered! 🔥 From clinching gold at the World Cup to dominating at the World Championships and recently shining at the Hangzhou Asian Games, this pair is unstoppable.
Huang didn't just stop at the mixed events; she also snagged the women's 10-meter air rifle individual gold at the Asian Games. Talk about hitting the bullseye! 🏆
\"I think I managed to beat myself today,\" Huang shared after her victory. \"I went through some ups and downs preparing for the Asian Games. I had no burden today, did it right during the process, and beat myself in the end.\"
Their success stories continued at the World Cup events in Baku and Munich earlier this year, where they once again topped the podium. With such a solid form, these young sharpshooters are definitely ones to watch at the Paris Olympics. 👀
Will China's shooting stars bring home the first gold of the Games? The excitement is building, and we can't wait to find out! Stay tuned! 🌟
