China's sharp-shooting duo Sheng Lihao and Huang Yuting delivered under pressure to win the first gold medal up for grabs at the Paris Olympics by winning the 10m air rifle mixed team final on Saturday.
With all eyes on their young faces and huge pressure on their shoulders, the teen pair of Sheng, 19, and Huang, 17, outgunned South Korean rivals Keum Ji-hyeon and Park Ha-jun with poise and accuracy by scoring 16-12 in the high-stakes final to claim the Games' first gold medal at the Chateauroux Shooting Centre, 250 kilometers south of Paris.
