Italia Team made history at the Chateauroux Shooting Centre.

In shooting, the fourth and fifth medals of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games were achieved by Federico Nilo Maldini and Paolo Monna, who claimed silver and bronze, respectively, in the 10-metre air pistol event.

Never before have two Azzurri finished simultaneously in the top three in this Olympic event, with Italy celebrating once again in the discipline following Roberto Di Donna's gold in Atlanta 1996 and Luca Tesconi's silver in London 2012. 

Maldini and Monna, after recording the second-best (581/600-16x) and fifth-best (579/600-18x) scores in the qualification session, finished their finals with scores of 240.0 and 218.6, respectively. The gold, however, was claimed by China's Yu Xie (240.9), who managed to prevail in the last series of two shots against Maldini.
