Cockbill’s performance in Mixed 10m Air Rifle standing SH2 also means he has secured a Tokyo 2020 Paralympic quota place for Paralympics GB.

The Aldridge shooter’s score of 229.2 was just 1.4 off going on to compete for the silver and gold places, but it was Korea’s Guensoo Kim who eventually took gold, while France’s Tanguy De La Fores won the silver medal.

The quota place becomes the fourth that the GB shooters have secured for Tokyo 2020, with Matt Skelhon, James Bevis and Tim Jeffrey having already won one each.
