Parastrelac Zdravko Savanović je u disciplini vazdušna puška 50 metara, klasa SH2, po- bedio sve, osim svog kolege iz reprezentacije Dragana Ristića, sa kojim je zajedno slušao himnu Bože prav- de u dalekom Japanu. – Zadovoljan sam, ovo je moja prva medalja na međunarodnim takmičenjima u pojedinačnoj kon- kurenciji. Prezadovoljan sam rezultatom, srećan sam što je ostvaren tako visok rang. Sledeće godine ima- mo dva jaka takmičenja, zatim Igre u Parizu. Spre- mamo se za to – podvukao je Savanović.
