It was the 35th gold of the national contingent with three days left before the 31st biennial sporting event draws its curtains to a close.
The success of Syasya, who is the second of four siblings, was the second gold won by the national shooting squad after Johnathan Wong won gold in the men's 10m air pistol yesterday.
