A steady hand, an eagle eye and a cool head: Camille Jedrzejewski madeFrench shooting sports history on August 3, 2024, when she won the silver medal in the 25m pistol shooting sports event. A magnificent victory, after a long suspenseful and tense final duel, against her opponent Jiin Yang. Hungary's Veronika Major rounded off the podium with a bronze medal.
The young Frenchwoman (aged just 22) was crowned Olympic vice-champion just before 10am on Saturday August 3. The athlete was particularly moved by this medal, following her defeat in the 10m pistol shooting events. Camille Jedrzejewski finally reaches the podium, and gives France its 37th medal of these Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
Camille Jedrzejewski may only have a few years' experience in the sport, but she's already causing a sensation at international competitions: she shone at the European Championships and European Games, and added a silver medal at the Olympic Games to her list of achievements. There's no doubt she'll continue to amaze us at upcoming tournaments.
The medal-winning athlete thus concludes her Games with a magnificent medal, but the competition is not over for everyone: we hope to see further French victories in the coming days.
