Giuseppe Giordano (born July 16, 1974, in Naples) is an Italian sport shooter.^[1]^[3] He won a bronze medal in the men's free pistol at the 2011 ISSF World Cup series in Munich, Germany, with a total score of 659.6 points, earning him a spot on the Italian team for the Olympics.^[4]^[5] Giordano is also a member of the shooting team for Centro Sportivo Esercito, and is coached and trained by Marco Masetti.^[1]^[2]
