World Cup Final
The World Cup Final in rifle and pistol is often, but not always, held in Munich in the end of August. The location and date of the World Cup Final in shotgun are more flexible. To the Final, the following shooters are qualified:
- The last Olympic or World champion.
- The last World Cup Final winner.
- The eight shooters that have made the best performances at a single World Cup competition during the year. For rating the performances, a special score system is used, where both the rank achieved in the competition and the score in the qualification round count.

Famous quotes containing the words world, cup and/or final:
“There’s nothing in this world can make me joy.
Life is as tedious as a twice-told tale,
Vexing the dull ear of a drowsy man.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“In poorer lands
No one touches the water of life.
It has no taste
And though it refreshes absolutely
It is a cup that must also pass
Until everybody
Gets some advantage....”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“To make a final conquest of all me,
Love did compose so sweet an enemy,
In whom both beauties to my death agree,
Joining themselves in fatal harmony;
That while she with her eyes my heart does bind,
She with her voice might captivate my mind.”
—Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
