Chinese shooter Huang Yuting was 0.1 points away from her second Paris Olympic gold, as South Korean Ban Hyo-jin was crowned in the women's 10 metre air rifle event on Monday.

Ban shot 10.4 in a tense shoot-off, 0.1 more than 17-year-old Huang's result after the duo both collected 251.8 in the final, equalling the Olympic record.

Huang and Sheng Lihao had got China's campaign off to a good start on Saturday, winning the Games' first gold medal in the 10 metre air rifle mixed team event. (Xinhua)
