Unnatural selection: which Russian national teams can still qualify for the 2028 Olympics

So far, only two out of ten federations have provided us with admission, and in some disciplines there is simply no chance of competing for a ticket.

Russian athlete Dmitry Pimenov won the World Championship in bullet and bench shooting in Doha a day earlier. He won a gold medal in the Olympic discipline of shooting a small—caliber rifle from a distance of 50 m from three positions. According to the results of the final performance, the Russian scored 362.8 points. This result allowed him to set a new world record among juniors.
