The International Shooting Sport Federation has ranked Jin Jong-oh as the world's top male competitor.

The federation on Wednesday said Jin leaped to the top spot from fourth in the 50-meter pistol category and from fifth in the 10-meter air pistol.

At the World Cup in Guangzhou, China, last week he became the first South Korean to win two events in the tournament by placing first in both categories.

The federation announces world rankings after every international competition such as the Olympics, the world championship and the World Cup.
