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:
“We should always remember that the work of art is invariably the creation of a new world, so that the first thing we should do is to study that new world as closely as possible, approaching it as something brand new, having no obvious connection with the worlds we already know. When this new world has been closely studied, then and only then let us examine its links with other worlds, other branches of knowledge.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“It is surely easier to confess a murder over a cup of coffee than in front of a jury.”
—Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
“I’ll give you my answer calmly and sensibly, my final answer. My final answer is finally no. The answer is no! Absolutely and finally no! Finally and positively no! No! No! No! N - O!”
—Abraham Polonsky (b. 1910)
