Biography
Kazakhstani rifle shooter Sergey Belyayev won multiple medals at both the Olympics and Asian Games. In 1988 Belyayev won gold at the ISSF World Cup in Mexico City, setting two world records in the process. He had an impressive record at the Asian Games with 10 medals, including five at the 1994 edition in Hiroshima. This included two individual golds in the 50 metres small-bore rifle, an individual silver, and a team silver and bronze. Two years later he won two silvers in the 50 metres small-bore rifle at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, with one in the three positions and the other in the prone event.
