Career
Savorgiannakis was named as part of the host nation"s shooting team to compete in the men"s 10 m air rifle at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. He had registered a minimum qualifying score of 592 from his outside-final finish at the European Championships to fill in one of the Olympic berths reserved to the host nation, after the Hellenic Shooting Federation decided to exchange spots in his pet event with the unused quotas from the men"s air and rapid fire pistol. Amassing a mighty roar from the crowd, Savorgiannakis targeted a substantial 592 out of a possible 600 to tie for eighteenth place with three other marksmen in the qualifying round, but fell short to reach the Olympic final by just a single point.
