Repacholi captures gold in thrilling finish
Four-time Olympian Dan Repacholi drew on all his experience and fighting qualities to complete a last gasp victory in the men’s 10m Air Pistol final in the BISC Cup held at the Brisbane International Shooting Centre today.
Repacholi entered the final as the top ranked competitor after the qualification round and staged a remarkable comeback to snatch victory away from seventh ranked finalist, ACT’s Thomas Ashmore.
In the final, Ashmore opened a 1.6 point lead over Repacholi after the first 20 shots and extended the margin to 5.5 points with six shots remaining.
Australia's four Tokyo Olympic Games Pistol team members will conclude a month-long training camp and contest the BISC Cup at the Brisbane International.
Cuban Olympic gold medals sell for over $70,000 each at auction Monday, 25 January 2021
Olympic gold medals awarded to long jumper jumper Iván Pedroso and shooter Leuris Pupo have both sold for more than $70,000 (£51,000/€58,000) at an online auction as both exceeded their estimates.
The medal won by Pupo in the men’s 25 metre rapid fire pistol at London 2012 fetched $73,205 (£53,533/€60,290),, including the buyer’s premium, at the sale organised by the Boston-based RR Auction – a lot more than the $50,000 (£36,500/€41,000) predicted.
Pedroso’s gold from Sydney 2000, when he became the first man other than Carl Lewis since Moscow 1980 to win the Olympic long jump title following the American’s four consecutive victories, smashed through its $20,000 (£14,500/€16,500) estimate as it attracted a top bid of $71,335 (£52,162/€58,749).
