Career
McIntosh won two golds and a bronze in the 2010 Commonwealth Games, making her the most successful female athlete with Team Scotland. At the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow she won Silver in the Women's 50 metre rifle three position and Bronze in the 50m rifle prone, making her the most decorated female medal winner in Scottish Commonwealth Games history - a record previously held by her mother and Elenor Gordon.
At the 2012 Summer Olympics, she competed in the 10 metre air rifle and 50 metre three positions events using a Host Nation Quota place.
At the 2015 European Championships in Maribor, she placed fourth in the 50 metre rifle three positions, earning Great Britain a women's rifle quota place to the 2016 Summer Olympics.
McIntosh was awarded the quota place and competed in the 10 metre air rifle and 50 metre three positions events.
In 2017 at the 48th Grand Prix of Liberation in Plzeň, McIntosh took Individual Bronze in the Women's 3x20 rifle with a qualification score of 589, one point off her PB and the British Record. Together with sister Seonaid McIntosh and Katie Gleeson the team won Silver as well as setting a new British Team Record of 1759ex1800. In the Prone 50m Rifle she won another Team Silver whilst setting another British Team Record of 1866.7 with Katie Gleeson and Lina Jones.
Plzeň marked the start of a winning streak for McIntosh and the GB Women's Rifle Team. At the International Shooting Competition of Hannover in May, McIntosh won individual Gold in the 10M Air Rifle, as well winning Team Golds in all three Women's Rifle Events with Seonaid McIntosh (who won her first Senior Gold medal in the Women's 3x20 50m Rifle) and Katie Gleeson (who took Bronze in the Prone 50m Rifle).
At the 2017 European Shooting Championships, Jennifer went on to take the Gold medal in the Women's 50M Prone Rifle becoming European Champion. In the 3x20 she qualified in fourth and placed fifth in the final, whilst younger sister Seonaid won the final, becoming European Champion in that event. Along with Katie Gleeson, the McIntosh sisters won the Three Position Team event.
