Silver goes to China's Huang Yuting and Audrey Gogniat gets bronze for Switzerland, the country's first medal of these Games.
As we await the first medal news of the day – which shouldn't be too far away if the shooters continue to hit their targets – let's reflect briefly on one of the surprise highlights from the opening ceremony on Friday.
