Has Olena Kostevych retired from shooting? She was not at the recent ISSF matches in Korea.

She’s back! She gave birth to her first child and was away for a while but she made a fine return to shooting in Munich with a gold in Team AP and an individual gold in AP and a medal in SP. I always enjoy watching her shoot, great to know she has not retired.

That was one heck of a shoot-out! Edge of the seat type of thing. Nerves of steel on Olena. Of course that's always been her way, sticking it out, unbothered by the dynamics of the session, just shooting her best game. A most admirable result, especially considering she has a baby to look after.
