I think that making the final in a big international competition is important to recognise as a success.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI believe that I made a few mistakes during qualification. It wasn\u2019t my best performance and now I know that there are a few technical aspects that I need to work on over the next few weeks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/shootingaustralia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jack-Liberation-GP-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5112\" style=\"width:492px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shootingaustralia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jack-Liberation-GP-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/shootingaustralia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jack-Liberation-GP-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/shootingaustralia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jack-Liberation-GP-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/shootingaustralia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jack-Liberation-GP-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/shootingaustralia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jack-Liberation-GP-1-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/shootingaustralia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jack-Liberation-GP-1.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Rossiter finished 6<sup>th<\/sup> in the final with Slovakia\u2019s Patrik J\u00e1ny taking home the gold medal. Italy\u2019s Danilo Sollazzo and India\u2019s Paarth Makhija claimed silver and bronze respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Commenting on his experience in the finals, Rossiter highlighted. \u201cThe finals started well. I had a strong first series, but I had some problems in my technique that came up in both qualification and the final. I think I know the solution now so I\u2019m glad I will have that to work on.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe scores from this competition were the highest out of any international competition so far this year. That is the main reason why I\u2019m satisfied with making the final, even though I know that there are improvements to be made.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/shootingaustralia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jack-Liberation-GP-2-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5110\" style=\"width:345px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shootingaustralia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jack-Liberation-GP-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/shootingaustralia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jack-Liberation-GP-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/shootingaustralia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jack-Liberation-GP-2-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/shootingaustralia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jack-Liberation-GP-2-600x800.jpg 600w, https:\/\/shootingaustralia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Jack-Liberation-GP-2.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Reflecting on how this competition will help him in future competitions, Rossiter explained, \u201cI believe this competition was great in terms of setting me up for the Munich World Cup.
