Li Yuwei won China’s second shooting gold medal at the 1984 Olympics. Previously little known internationally, he would help China win a mixed-speed team world championship in 1986 and was first in the 1987 World Cup in both mixed- and standard-speed moving target. The silver medal went to Colombia’s Helmut Bellingrodt, who had also been silver medalist in 1972.
