Lima, July 29 (RHC) - Cuban veteran Eglys de la Cruz, in the Three positions 50 meters air rifle, held a dramatic battle against American Sarah Beard, who eventually scored half a point more than the Cuban to leave her with the Silver medal. De la Cruz broke the Cuban National Record for the sport with 454.2 points and left American Virginia Thrasher (444 points) in third place.

On the other side, Jorge Grau established a new Pan-American record in the 10 meters air pistol with 237.3 points and got, as well as Eglys de la Cruz, a ticket to Tokyo 2020. Grau, who was the Cuban MVP in the Barranquilla 2018 Central American Games with 5 gold medals, won his first Pan-Am title after finishing second in Toronto 2015.
