Beijing: Jin Jong-Oh of South Korea survived a last-minute scare to win the Olympic men's 50m Pistol shooting gold medal in a thrilling finish on Tuesday.
Jin ended just 0.2 points ahead of second-placed North Korean Kim Jong-Su to grab his second medal of the Beijing Olympics after winning the silver in the 10m event on Saturday.
World champion Tan Zongliang was forced to settle for the bronze despite starting the final with a two-point lead.
"I know it is a bit embarrassing that I have got only a bronze, but at least I have finally won an Olympic medal before ending my career," he said.
