Amber Hill World Cup win
The recent ISSF World Cup in New Delhi was a high point of 23-year-old Amber Hill’s career. Having scored a world record equalling 124/125 in qualifying, Amber went on to finish the main event on 21 March tied on 51 with Kazakhstan’s Zoya Kravchenko.
After a nail-biting shoot-off, Amber found herself one clay ahead of her Kazak rival and made her way to the top step of the Women’s Skeet podium. Along with a gold medal to add to her collection, Amber also claimed an all-important Olympic quota place.
Amber will now join Aaron Heading, Matthew Coward-Holley and Kirsty Hegarty as they prepare for Tokyo 2021. This will be Amber’s second chance at Olympic glory, having narrowly missed out on a chance to shoot it out for bronze in Brazil in 2016.
