Seonaid takes her place on the podium for the second time in two months!
Following her history making Gold in Egypt last month, Seonaid travelled to Tallinn, Estonia to compete at the European Shooting Confederation’s European Championships.
Seonaid started brilliantly, moving through the 10m Air Rifle qualifying rounds, to finish top of the leader board heading into the medal matches.
She led throughout the medal qualifier, before an extremely tense Gold Medal Match saw Norway’s Jeanette Duestad narrowly claim victory.
Seonaid’s medal qualifier and gold medal match scores were as follows:

An incredible performance and fantastic two months for Seonaid!
