German Christian Reitz, bronze medallist in this event in 2008, impressed in the qualification round with 592 points, just one point behind his own world record. The defending champion Leuris Pupo from Cuba just qualified for the final as the last of six qualifiers. The 29-year-old Reitz continued to impress in the final and won the gold with four hits more than his nearest rival, the 2014 junior world champion, 20-year-old Jean Quiquampoix from Paris. Li Yuehong of China won the bronze medal, with his countryman Zhang Fusheng in fourth place. Zhang was leading the competition after four stages, but had only two and one hits in the next stages and was eliminated. Defending Champion Pupo came fifth.
