22-year-old Yi Siling is among the 23-strong Chinese squad for shooting at the upcoming London Olympic Games. Yi, a contender for the Women's 10m Air Rifle, has drawn great attention for her sharp shooting skills and cool headed disposition. Yi won the women's 10-meter air rifle final at the 2010 Munich Championships with a total score of 505.6 points, breaking the world record of 505.0 points set by Munich's Sonja Pfeilschifter in 2008.

The Women's 10m Air Rifle event, which is set to open on July 28, the first day of competition, will generate the very first gold of the Games, and Yi is regarded as a top contestant to bring home China's first Olympic gold this summer.
