RIO DE JANEIRO, April 21 (Xinhua) -- German shooter Henri Junghaenel clinched his fourth World Cup gold medal in the men's 50m rifle prone on Thursday by outclassing Australia's Warren Potent in Rio de Janeiro.

Junghaenel took the gold medal with a final score of 210 points, 2.1 points ahead of his rival.

"It definitely was a good day for me," Junghaenel said. "I started off a little bit on the right but once I fixed that the final was pretty awesome.

"After I placed sixth in Bangkok I made some adjustments, but I didn't expect a win here. I'm pretty happy about it. It's been a great final. No doubt about that. The range needs some minor fixes but you can already say it's a good range."

Serbia's Steven Pletikosic won his first medal in this event since 2008, taking bronze with 186.2 points.

The ISSF World Cup series stage in Rio is also serving as an official test event for the Olympic Games in August.
