Pavlo Korostylov of Ukraine surpassed Vietnamese Xuan Vinh Hoang's finals world record, set earlier this year, by 0.6 points to win the men's 10m air pistol at the YOG, which makes him a promising Olympic medallist.

Jan Ketzel, an official of the International Shooting Sport Federation, explained Korostylov's score would not be ratified as a world record, due to an International Olympic Committee directive which states that any records at the YOG are not recognized, but anyway the 18-year-old Ukrainian has already demonstrated his talent capable of the Olympics comeptition.
