Teo Shun Xie (born September 30, 1988) is a Singaporean sport shooter.[1] In 2014, Teo had set a final meet record in the women's air pistol to claim her first gold medal at the Commonwealth Games.[2] Teo currently trains for the Singaporean national team under the tutelage of Russian-born head coach Anatoly Babushkin.[1][3]

Teo made her international debut at the 2013 Southeast Asian Games in Naypyidaw, Myanmar, claiming only the silver medal in the women's 10 m air pistol.[1] Teo's untimely success in marksmanship came at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland by the following year. There, she notched the final Games record score of 198.6 points ahead of India's Malaika Goel and Canada's 2012 Olympian Dorothy Ludwig to win her first gold medal in the women's air pistol.[2][4]

When Singapore hosted the 2015 Southeast Asian Games, Teo scored a fantastic 199.0 in the air pistol final by a slender 2.3-point lead over Thailand's Pim-on Klaisuban to add another gold to her treasury.[5]

Leading up to her Olympic debut, Teo had finished sixth with 12 points in the semifinal stage of the women's sport pistol (25 m), but managed to secure one of the available berths to the Games for Singapore at the 2016 Asian Olympic Shooting Qualifying Tournament in New Delhi, India.[6]
