Christian Reitz

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Christian Reitz is a German 25 m Rapid Fire Pistol shooter, the current world record holder. He rose to fame during 2005, the first year with the new equipment rules, but was defeated in that year's European Junior Championships by teammate Philipp Wagenitz before finishing his junior career with victories in the 2006 ISSF World Shooting Championships and the 2007 European Championships.

In his first year as a senior, Reitz has made considerable progress, winning two World Cup competitions and being the runner-up behind three-time Olympic champion Ralf Schumann at one, equalling the world record with a 591 score in Milan, and raising Schumann's final world record from 790.0 to 794.0.
