The “common” style of the Turkish shooter won the Olympic silver medal In the mixed 10m air pistol team event at the Paris Olympics, the Turkish team won the silver medal with a score of 10 points. The gold medal went to the Serbian team with a score of 16 points. However, it was the Turkish shooter who used his opinion. The captains of the Turkish men’s 10m air pistol team were Yusuf Dikec and Tarhan Sevval. Among them, the male shooter Yusuf Dikec made a strong impression when he performed his shooting range. Unlike Damir Mikec (his opponent on the Serbian side) or most of the other shooters participating in the Olympics, Dikec did not use anti-glare glasses or cover one eye. He also did not use large equipment. Instead, Yusuf Dikec wore a T-shirt ring, glasses, and used a small earpiece. Rest assured, he had one hand in his pocket when performing the shooting range. Mikec’s style of play is very leisurely and relaxed but achieves maximum efficiency. Dikec’s demeanor continues to affirm the “goddess” of the Korean shooting force Kim Ye Ji. Fans commented that Dikec thinks differently from an office worker who goes to the stadium, holds a gun, calculates the score and then goes home. Some fans even associate Dikec’s image with the “hidden assassins” in action movies. Although he brings a very “ordinary” appearance to the Olympics, Yusuf Dikec is a classy goalkeeper, a soldier of Türkiye. He started competing professionally in 2001 and holds many records for pistols in this country. In 2006, the 1973-born shooter set a record in the 25m air pistol event at the Military World Games in Norway. In addition, he has also won 2 world championships, 5 European championships and many other medals.
