Template:Chinese-name Lin Yi-chun (Chinese: 林 怡君; pinyin: Lín Yíjūn; born July 5, 1981 in Taoyuan (now Taoyuan District, Taoyuan City)) is a Taiwanese sport shooter.[1][2] She won two medals, gold and silver, in the women's double trap, at the 2001 and 2002 ISSF World Shooting Championships in Cairo, Egypt and Lahti, Finland, respectively.[3] She also captured a bronze medal in the women's trap at the 2006 Asian Games in Doha, Qatar, accumulating a score of 80 clay pigeons and a bonus of 1 target from a shoot-off.[4]

Representing Chinese Taipei, Lin made her official debut at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, where she competed in the women's double trap only. She scored a total of 134 targets (100 in the preliminary rounds and 34 in the final), and a bonus of 14 from a shoot-off (against Canada's Cynthia Meyer). She finished in fourth place, narrowly missing out on the medal by five points behind defending Olympic champion Kim Rhode.[5][3] At the 2004 Summer Olympics, Lin placed eighth in the qualifying rounds of the women's double trap, one point behind Australia's Susan Trindall after the final attempt, accumulating a score of 106 targets.[6]

Eight years after competing in her last Olympics, Lin qualified for her third Chinese Taipei team, as a 31-year-old, at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, by placing third in the women's trap at the 2011 ISSF World Cup series in Beijing, China.[7] She scored a total of 68 clay pigeons in the qualifying rounds of the women's trap, one point ahead of U.S. shooter and Beijing bronze medalist Corey Cogdell. She finished in tenth place.[8]
