The 59-year-old, who was the only representative from Sabah Shooting Association (SSA) to take part in the competition, had earlier made it to the finals as fourth ranked among the six finalists with his total score of 96 in the quarterfinal.

The maiden victory in the tournament was also his first title this year, after winning a bronze in the Tun Hanif Trophy tournament held in March and he hopes to compete and do well in all the events scheduled later this year.

Meanwhile, SSA president Tan Sri Goh Tian Chuan congratulated Kiu who paid a courtesy call on him at his office on Wednesday.

“It was a stellar performance from Kiu to deliver the gold medal to make the State and SSA proud.
