Final
The final in the Three positions event consists of ten shots from the standing position, and the Athens final began at 13:30 local time, the last event in the Final Hall. Matthew Emmons of the United States, who had already won the gold in the Prone event two days earlier, started out second and performed nine excellent shots, acquiring a three-point lead, which normally would be more than enough with only one shot remaining. However, Emmons cross-fired his last shot on Christian Planer's target, therefore scoring a 0.0 and finishing last in the final. The Czech rifle star Kateřina Kůrková was a commentator during the match and met Emmons for an interview; they would eventually get married.[1]
