The favorite was American Jason Parker, who was 2002 World Champion and the world-record holder with 702.5. But he was off-form, qualifying only in eighth place, and staying in that position after the final round. Chinese shooters Zhu Qinan and Li Jie were 1-2 in the qualifying with 599 and 598. But Zhu posted the highest final round (103.7) to win the gold medal and break Parker’s world record with 702.7. Silver medalist Li had also been runner-up at the 2002 Worlds.
