Chelsea fan Ken Parr showed Fernando Torres how to shoot when he won bronze for England in the 50m rifle prone.

The 25-year-old from Croydon, a double silver medallist at Delhi four years ago, clinched his third Commonwealth Games medal at the Barry Buddon Shooting Centre in Dundee.

Unlike misfiring Blues striker Torres, Parr knew where the target was as he fired in two maximum 10.9s, as well as a nerveless 10.4 with his 12th shot to avoid elimination and a fourth-placed finish.

Now Parr is hoping a little bit of his success will rub off on the Spaniard.

"I love Fernando - he's one of my favourite players," Parr said.

"I loved him at Atletico Madrid - he was a great signing and I'm hoping for some great performances from him this season."

Parr hugged his father, a double shooting bronze medallist himself in 1998, upon realising he had made the podium.

"He was great," Parr added. "But the trouble is he said he was going to buy me a new gun - I was going to get a new one next year - but now obviously he says I don't need a new one after a performance like that."

Parr's two silvers in Delhi came in different disciplines so he was delighted to add a prone medal to his collection.

And there could yet be more to come, as he goes in the three positions event on Tuesday morning.

"This is right up there," he said. "Prone is a strange event for me, really. I probably had most of my success in this event, but I wouldn't say it was my strongest.

"But to qualify in second was a great buzz and in the final any one of those eight guys could have won. I put myself in the mix and came out with a medal.

"Tomorrow we'll see how qualifying goes, and then in the final anything goes, but I hope to put in another performance like this."

The gold went to Warren Potent of Australia, with Gagan Narang of India taking silver.

Gary Duff of Northern Ireland was seventh and Scot Neil Stirton eighth.

Out on the shotgun range, Caroline Povey claimed bronze in the Olympic trap.

After Sunday's double trap gold medallist Charlotte Kerwood had surprisingly failed to qualify for the final in her preferred event, it was left to Povey to carry England's hopes.

The 34-year-old from Matlock qualified for the bronze-medal match in third place - two targets ahead of New Zealand's Natalie Rooney, who needed a three-way shoot-off to get through.

Both shooters nailed 12 clays out of 15 to force another sudden-death shoot-off, and this time Rooney missed her second clay to hand Pavey the medal.

Pavey was delighted to follow in the footsteps of her father Joe Neville, who won shooting gold and silver at Edinburgh in 1986.

"It was very nerve-wracking but I just had to try to stay focused, keep it one target at a time and I'm absolutely delighted to win a bronze medal," she said.

"I had to dig deep to keep it together and keep hitting them until the end.

"Dad won gold and silver the last time the Games were in Edinburgh so when I found out I was coming to Glasgow 2014 it was always the aim and now we've got all three from the Games in Scotland. It will make the whole family so proud.

"My daughter Xanthe is here today. I came to watch Dad when I was six to see him win his medals so I wanted her to be here. She probably won't remember it but I'll have great memories of it. We'll be having a great evening out tonight."

Australia's Laetisha Scanlan took the gold, with Georgia Konstantinidou of Cyprus claiming silver.

Jen McIntosh was unable to retain her Commonwealth title in the women's 50m rifle prone but she did earn Scotland a third shooting medal with a bronze.

It was a fourth Commonwealth medal for the 23-year-old from Edinburgh, who was pipped by winner Sally Johnston from New Zealand and South Africa's Esmari Van Reenan.
