10M AIR RIFLE WOMEN
QUALIFICATION
28 JUL 2012, START TIME 08:15
                        Final 11:00

Let’s start from the beginning: the first Gold medal of the Games. Traditionally, shooting assigns the first Olympic Gold. On July 28, the spotlights will be on the 10m Air Rifle Women event, where the very first champion of the 2012 London Olympics will be crowned. Hundreds of media, and millions of people, are waiting to see the first hero of the XXX Games in action.

Who’s going to climb the highest podium of the world? Who will turn into the icon of the first Olympic match? Hard to guess, so let’s do some math! By the time we publish this article, the People’s Republic of China have not announced their Olympic team yet, but it’s almost sure that 2010 ISSF World Champion Yi Siling will participate in the Olympics. She’s young (23), she is ranked 1st in the world in this event, and she was the first athlete to qualify for the Games in 2010, winning an Olympic Quota at the ISSF World Championship in Munich. Numbers seems to be on her side: out of 15 ISSF competitions she participated in (during the last 4 years), she made it to 12 finals, finishing 9 times with a medal around her neck. Yi turned to be the strongest shooter of 2011 by winning the ISSF World Cup Final in Wroclaw, and he also won this year’s ISSF World Cup Stage in Munich, finishing in second in London at the pre-Olympic test event. She’s good and she knows it, as she admitted herself: “I am so happy with my scores, I feel so good. I hope I make the Olympic team, I want to go London to win the 10m Air Rifle Women final. That’s the dream I have, and I can achieve it!” Who could such defeat such a strong-minded athlete?

There are a number of contenders, first of all the title defender, 2008 Olympic Champion Katerina Emmons of the Czech Republic (maiden name: Kurkova). Emmons took some time off from shooting after the last Olympics, as she married American Olympic Champ Matt Emmons and later on gave birth to Julia, their daughter. But during the last season she made a comeback, recording one of the best personal scores of the last Olympic cycle of all the ISSF 10m Air Rifle Women in the “Super 25” list. With an equaled world record of 400 points out of 400, and an outstanding final of 105.9 points, she matched Yi Siling, and climbed back to the World Rankings Top 3.

Facing the two top-ranked shooters, will be Croatia’s 2008 Olympic Bronze medalist Snjezana Pejcic, one of the most consistent international shooters with 18 participations in international ISSF events during the last Olympic cycles and four podium placements. However, Italy’s Petra Zublasing, who finished in the spotlights more than once in the last Olympic cycle, could yet offer us a surprise. Or the USA’s best 10m Air Rifle Women shooters, Jamie Lynn Gray (we mentioned her in the 50m Rifle 3 Positions Women preview) and Sarah Scherer, a 21-year old first-time Olympian who ranks 9th in the world after winning last year’s ISSF World Cup Stage in Changwon, Korea. Undoubtedly, the 10m Air Rifle Women event will be an open match, with a thrilling final and a new champion waiting to be discovered.

THE SHOOTING SPORT AT THE OLYMPIC GAMES


The shooting sport at the Olympic Games
In 1896, the modern Olympic Games began, through the efforts of the Frenchman Baron Pierre de Coubertin, who made his life's work to resurrect the Olympic dream that had first begun in ancient Greece several centuries before the common area. In Athens, Greece the first modern Olympic Games were conducted with nine sports and the former French pistol champion, Pierre de Coubertin supported the inclusion of two big-bore rifle and three pistol events on the Olympic program.
Up until today Shooting Sport just had missed twice to be on the Olympic program. Shooting Sport competitions were not held at the 3rd Games 1904 in St. Louis, USA and at the Games 1928 in Amsterdam, NED.

The list of events has been modified at successive Games in the light of how guns have evolved, taking account also of customs and tradition. Until 1924, the Shooting program contained a multitude of events that were subsequently dropped: 31 events at all. 17 of these 31 events appeared on the program just once, and further nine appeared twice. This shows how unstable the program was at that time. After a “break” in 1928, shooting returned to the Olympics in 1932 with only two events - one for pistols and one for rifles. Since World War II the programme has become relatively standardised.

Of the events that were dropped, it is worth mentioning the 300m rifle, which was included in the program of 12 times until 1972 which had been one of the three shooting events on the program since 1896. Individual and team events were fired until 1948, when team competitions were eliminated by the ISSF- International Shooting Sport federation, former UIT - International Shooting Federation.

Women were first allowed to compete in Olympic shooting in 1968. In that year Mexico, Peru and Poland each entered one female contestant. Women have competed with the men until 1980. At the 1984 Games, women took part for the first time in a separate program consisting of three events. Between 1984 and 1992 the number of women's events increased gradually. In addition, trap and skeet events remained mixed, i.e. open to both men and women.

As of 1996 in Atlanta, the shooting programme was segregated, with men's events being separated from the women's. More recently, the double trap events for men and women were added to the Olympic programme.

Participation has crown steadily through the years. While only 31 known competitors from seven nations competed in the shooting events at the first Games Athens in 1896, 462 shooters participated from 68 nations at the 1984 Los Angeles Games. In the following Games the participation was restricted by the IOC quota rule and the IOC has approved a total quota of 3400 athletes in Seoul 1988 who came from 66 nations.

At the 2004 Athens Olympic Games 390 athletes were accepted for participation, where 253 men and 157 women from 106 nations took part in 17 shooting events.

The Olympic Program changed for the 2008 Games, and the number of shooting events passed from 17 to 15. Running Target and Double Trap Women events were discontinued. In spite of the events reduction, the participation increased, and 390 shooters  coming from more then 100 countries took part in the 2008 Olympic Games of Beijing.

A HISTÓRIA DO TIRO NOS JOGOS OLIMPICOS


Origem dos Jogos Olímpicos

Foram os gregos que criaram os Jogos Olímpicos. Por volta de 2500 a.C, os gregos já faziam homenagens aos deuses, principalmente Zeus, com realização de competições. Porém, foi somente em 776 a.C que ocorreram pela primeira vez os Jogos Olímpicos, de forma organizada e com participação de atletas de várias cidades-estado.
Atletas das cidades-estados gregas se reuniram na cidade de Olímpia para disputarem diversas competições esportivas: atletismo, luta, boxe, corrida de cavalo e pentatlo (luta, corrida, salto em distância, arremesso de dardo e de disco). Os vencedores eram recebidos como heróis em suas cidades e ganhavam uma coroa de louros.


O esporte de tiro nos Jogos Olímpicos


Em 1896, os Jogos Olímpicos modernos começaram, através dos esforços do Barão francês Pierre de Coubertin, que fez um trabalho de sua vida para ressuscitar o sonho olímpico que começou nos tempos da Grécia antiga, 776 a.C. Em Atenas, Grécia, os primeiros Jogos Olímpicos, da era Moderna, foram realizados com nove esportes e o ex campeão Frances de Pistola, Pierre de Coubertin defendeu a inclusão de dois eventos de rifle de grosso calibre e três eventos de pistola no programa olímpico.

Até hoje o Esporte de Tiro, deixou de participar em apenas duas vezes no programa Olímpico. Competições esportivas de tiro não foram realizadas nos Jogos de 1904 em St. Louis, EUA e nos Jogos de 1928 em Amsterdam, NED.

A lista de eventos foi modificado em jogos sucessivos em função de como as armas evoluíram, tendo em conta também os costumes e tradição. Até 1924, o programa de tiro continha uma multiplicidade de eventos que foram subsequentemente descartados: 31 eventos ao todo. 17 desses, 31 eventos apareceram no programa apenas uma vez, e mais nove apareceram duas vezes. Isso mostra o quão instável o programa era naquele tempo. Depois de um parada  em 1928, o tiro voltou aos Jogos Olímpicos em 1932, com apenas dois eventos - um para pistolas e um para rifles. A partir da Segunda Guerra Mundial o programa tornou-se relativamente padronizado.


Dos eventos que foram descartados, vale a pena mencionar o rifle de 300m, que foi incluído no programa por 12 vezes até 1972, que tinha sido um dos três eventos do  programa tiro desde 1896. Eventos individuais e de equipe foram disputados até 1948, quando as competições entre equipes foram eliminadas pela ISSF- Federação International de Tiro Esportivo,  ex-UIT - Federação Internacional de Tiro.


Em 1968, as mulheres tiveram pela primeira vez, a permissão para competir no tiro olímpico. Naquele ano, México, Peru e Polônia, cada um,  inscreveu uma mulher para a competição. Mulheres competiram junto com os homens até 1980.  Nos jogos de 1984, as mulheres tomaram parte, pela primeira vez, em um programa separado consistindo de três eventos. Entre 1984 e 1992 o número de eventos das mulheres aumentou gradualmente. Além disso, eventos de trap e skeet permaneceram misturados, ou seja, aberto a homens e mulheres.


A partir de 1996, em Atlanta, o programa de tiro foi modificado, com eventos dos homens em separado das mulheres. Mais recentemente, os eventos fossa double  para homens e mulheres foram adicionados ao programa olímpico.


Participação tem se mantido constante ao longo dos anos. Enquanto apenas 31 concorrentes de sete nações competiram nas provas de tiro nos primeiros Jogos de Atenas, em 1896, 462 atiradores de 68 nações participaram  em 1984, nos Jogos de Los Angeles. Nos Jogos seguintes, a participação foi limitada pelo sistema de quotas do COI.

No Olimpíadas de Atenas 2004, 390 atletas foram aceitos para a participação, onde 253 homens e 157 mulheres de 106 nações participaram em 17 eventos de tiro.

O Programa Olympic foi alterada para os jogos de 2008, e do número de eventos passou de  ​​17 para 15. Foram excluidas as modalidades alvo em movimento e de Fossa Double para mulheres. Apesar da redução de eventos, a participação aumentou,  390 atiradores vindos de mais de 100 países participaram nos Jogos Olímpicos de 2008 de Pequim.
