The battle for third place was a very close affair. The three Swiss had the same number of points as Italy in the final ranking with 1764, but retained the upper hand thanks to the higher number of maximum hits.

With just one point less, Serbia and the USA took 5th and 6th place respectively. France won the title with 1771 points ahead of Norway with 1768 points.
