“I was not expecting it. On the last stage you’re not supposed to think, ‘Don’t miss the shot, don’t miss the shot’, but I was totally thinking, ‘Don’t miss the shot’. I know I’m not a fast shooter and I’m not a consistently accurate shooter, so I knew I had to just take a good shot and make it count every time. That also means I’m in the range for about a minute at a time, which is where the time went,” said Masters.
