Shortly afterwards, Thu Vinh, along with her teammates Nguyen Thuy Trang and Trieu Thi Hoa Hong, won the gold medal in the women's 10m air pistol team event. The Vietnamese shooting team also broke the SEA Games record in this event.
After achieving great success for Vietnamese shooting in particular, and for the Vietnamese sports delegation in general, Trinh Thu Vinh said: “Today was a lucky day for me; my teammates and I won two gold medals. I faced quite a few difficulties at the beginning of today's competition due to pressure.”
“When that feeling came over me, I had difficulty controlling my gun in the first few shots. Afterwards, I went outside with the coaching staff to calm myself down. Luckily, I didn't lose too many points during that time,” Thu Vinh added.
According to Trinh Thu Vinh's assessment, all the shooters participating in the final round were very strong. Therefore, success only came to the most successful, the most mentally strong, and with a little bit of luck.

Thu Vinh candidly shared: “All the athletes in the finals are equally skilled. I can't say which athlete is stronger or weaker among those who made it to the finals. I just tried to implement the competition methods that the coaching staff had set for me, before luck smiled upon me.”
"I keep a notebook where I record my competition experiences. During shooting, athletes can get distracted and forget the best methods they usually use. I use note-taking to help myself, so I have something to refer to when needed," the Vietnamese female shooter revealed her secret to success.
According to Thu Vinh, the coaching staff played a crucial role in her victory today. The members of the Vietnamese shooting team's coaching staff are highly experienced and capable individuals who can help Vietnamese athletes overcome the most difficult moments.
Thu Vinh shared: “The coaching staff always motivates me with the words ‘I have the ability and I can do it.’ My job after that is to go on the field, play to the best of my ability, and follow the coaching staff’s instructions closely.”
"I've failed quite a few times in the finals. To be honest, I've failed more often than I've succeeded. Maybe those failures, those unfortunate times, have accumulated good luck for today's final (laughs)," said female shooter Trinh Thu Vinh.
