Chinese shooter Sun Yujie claimed victory in the women's 25m pistol event at the ISSF World Cup in Lima, marking her second consecutive gold medal of the year. The triumph bolstered the Chinese shooting team's dominant performance, which concluded the event with 13 total medals: 4 gold, 3 silver, and 6 bronze.
In a high-stakes final against India's team, Sun and teammate Yao Qianxun delivered steady scores of 11 hits out of 15 shots, maintaining China's lead despite an early exit by fellow shooter Zu Pengwen. India’s Simranpreet Kaur Brar pushed Sun to the wire, but the Chinese athlete sealed the win by a single shot. Indian contender Manu Bhaker narrowly missed the podium after faltering in her final attempts.
The Chinese team’s success underscores its depth in shooting sports, with athletes consistently performing under pressure. The ISSF World Cup now moves to Munich in June, where China aims to build on its momentum.
