... that although sport shooter Ban Hyo-jin attended Olympic trials "just to gain some competition experience", she qualified for the Olympics and went on to win a gold medal?

Source: YNA ("Ban, now 16, entered the Olympic trials just to gain some competition experience. Her initial objective was to compete against some veteran shooters this year and then push for a spot on the national team for the 2025 season. But Ban found herself in the lead after three out of five rounds in the trials. Suddenly, an Olympic spot was within grasp.") / Straits Times ("Compatriot Huang Yuting, however, was denied the same feat by South Korean Ban Hyo-jin, who won the women's competition by beating the Chinese via a shoot-off. Ban also become the youngest female Olympic shooting champion at 16 and the teenaged trio's sparkling form in Paris offered a glimpse into the future of rifle shooting.")
