Teen Shooter Wang Zifei Hits Gold 🎯 at ISSF World Cup!

Move over, Olympians—there’s a new sharpshooter in town! 🥇 Eighteen-year-old Wang Zifei just became the talk of the ISSF World Cup in Buenos Aires after snagging her first-ever gold medal in the women’s 10m air rifle event. The teen phenom’s victory? Pure drama. 🌟

Coming in third after qualifiers, Wang trailed South Korea’s Kwon Eun-ji by a *hair*. But once the final rounds began? Game on. Swiss star Audrey Gogniat (an Olympic bronze medalist, no less!) led early, but Wang leveled up with back-to-back bullseyes to seize the top spot. Her final score? 254.1 points—**just 0.4 points shy** of compatriot Huang Yuting’s world record! 😱

This win isn’t Wang’s first rodeo in South America. Last year, she dominated at the Junior World Championships in Lima, Peru, bagging *two* golds. Now, fans are buzzing: Is she Tokyo 2024’s secret weapon? 🔫✨

Kwon took silver (253.1 points), while Gogniat rounded out the podium. Up next? The women’s 10m air pistol finals—stay tuned! 🎯
