Yusuf Dikec, the Turkish shooter who shot to fame with his ‘swag’ at the 2024 Paris Olympics, is back in the limelight for channelling his nonchalant aura at the European Champions League of Air Weapons. Dikec led his national team to three gold medals at the event in Istanbul. Dressed in his characteristic white T-shirt and glasses, Dikec stared at his aim and made an effortless shot in the viral video. Dikec participated with Mustafa Inan to defeat Germany’s Christian Reitz and Paul Frohlich 2-0 in the men’s team final. “Representing my country in front of a home crowd, with the tournament being held in Istanbul for the first time, is a great honour,” Dikec told Turkey Today. “Winning gold here feels amazing, and it’s perfect preparation for the World Championships in Cairo this November," he said.

Born in Tasoluk village of Goksun district in Kahramanmaraş Province, Turkey, Dikec began his sports shooting career in 2011. The retired non-commissioned officer of the Turkish Gendarmerie set a new world record in the 25 m centre-fire pistol event at the CISM Military World Championships in 2006. Dikec scored 597 points in the event, multiple media reports stated. In 2013, Dikec became a double gold medalist in the 25 m standard pistol and 25 m centre-fire pistol competitions. In 2024, he bagged a silver medal at the Paris Olympics. He became a global sensation, winning silver in the mixed 10-metre air pistol as he shot with no extra gear. Later in September of the same year, the shooting superstar filed to trademark his viral pose after many attempted to try it worldwide. “After being informed of numerous trademark registration initiatives carried out without Yusuf Dikec’s knowledge, we submitted an application about a week ago,” his coach, Erdinc Bilgili, said, as quoted by AFP.
