The 30-year-old earns an Olympic spot via her world rankings.

SINGAPORE – After some agonising near misses, Singaporean shooter Teh Xiu Hong has qualified for her maiden Olympics without firing a single shot.

But in the end, her efforts paid off as the ranking points accumulated from those competitions allowed her to overtake several contenders – including compatriot and 2016 Olympian Teo Shun Xie – to punch her ticket to Paris.National pistol coach Lee Do-hee, a South Korean who has worked with Olympic champion Kim Jang-mi and several World Cup medallists, credited Teh for her positivity and mentality.

“One of her technical skills is her excellent trigger control. If she gains more experience and learns to alleviate competition anxiety, she has the potential to further excel as an athlete.”
