Women's 10 metre air rifle was one of the thirteen shooting events at the 1992 Summer Olympics. It was the first Olympic competition after the introduction of the new target in 1989, and thus two Olympic records were set. Vesela Letcheva and Yeo Kab-soon shared the pre-final lead with 396 points, and Yeo outperformed Letcheva by almost three points in the final.[1]
