About
Jason Turner (born January 31, 1975, in Rochester, New York) is an American sport shooter and Olympic athlete who finished fourth at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing in the 10 metre air pistol final. Bronze medalist Kim Jong Su later tested positive for propranolol, disqualifying him and upgrading Turner's position to third. Turner had finished on exactly the same score as his countryman Brian Beaman, but defeated him in a seemingly uninteresting shoot-off for fourth place that would later secure him the bronze medal.
