The story

Tao Luna won the women's 10m air pistol gold medal in shooting at Sydney 2000 on 17 September 2000. The title went to China, with the competition held at Sydney International Shooting Centre, Liverpool, Australia.

How it unfolded

Jasna Sekaric (Yugoslavia) took silver; Annemarie Forder (Australia) took bronze.

The wider picture

This Olympic shooting event had its own equipment, target and qualification requirements. The final ranking belongs to the specified discipline, rather than to an overall shooting championship. Where a qualification score was carried into the final, the aggregate determined the medals. Rifle, pistol and shotgun totals used different scales, making comparisons across those disciplines misleading.
