Who was Pentti Linnosvuo?
Pentti Tapio Akseli Linnosvuo was a Finnish sport shooter, the most recent shooter to win Olympic gold medals in both 50 m Pistol and 25 m Rapid Fire Pistol. As the technique differs much between the two events, few modern top-level shooters even attempt to excel in both. He was born in Vaasa and died in Kuusamo.
