Another mistake costs gold for Emmons

Beijing, China (Sports Network) – Another mistake, another lost chance at a gold medal.

Four years ago, American Matt Emmons had the lead going into his final shot in the 50-meter 3-position rifle, but he shot at the wrong target and finished without a medal. It was basically a repeat performance on Sunday in the same event, with Emmons scoring a 4.4 out of a possible 10.9 on his final shot because his gun accidentally went off.

Emmons was ahead the entire way in the final round, but because of the mistake, he dropped to fourth, again out of a medal placing.

Qiu Jian won the gold with a total score of 1272.5, while Ukraine's Jury Sukhorukov captured the silver with 1272.4. Rajmond Debevec of Slovenia earned the bronze with 1271.7, right in front of Emmons (1270.3).

"You just can't let it get to you, there are other things way more important," said Emmons. "I'm waiting for some really good thing to happen from this, because everything happens for a reason."

The 27-year-old Emmons needed only a 6.7 on the last shot to win, a score considered simple in Olympic standards.

"I didn't feel my finger shaking, but I guess it was," said Emmons. "I realized it went off and I hope it made it to the black. I call it a freak of nature."

Emmons was given emotional support by his wife, Czech shooter Katerina, who won a gold and silver at these Games.

"What happened today I think will keep him going, keep him determined, and he will be more experienced," she said. "This will keep him pointed in the right direction."

Matt Emmons did get a medal at these Olympics, finishing with a silver in the 50m rifle prone on Friday.
