The third ISSF Rifle/Pistol World Cup stop of 2016 starts Saturday in Munich, Germany. Four events will begin on the opening day with medals awarded in the 10m air rifle for both men and women. The US did not have medalists in either of those events in the first two stops and the only one of the two men and three women competing on Saturday who has taken part in the 2016 World Cup so far is 2016 Olympian Virginia Thrasher. The men will have six series, the women four, with the top eight totals advancing to the quarterfinals.

Also starting on Saturday is the 25m women’s pistol where 2016 Olympian Enkelejda Shehu will be competing and the men’s 50m pistol where two 2016 Olympians, Will Brown and Jay Shi, are competing. Shi finished seventh in the event in Rio in the World Cup earlier this year. The 25m pistol competition features the first of two halves of qualifying scores while the 50m pistol competition will be elimination rounds.
