>In a series of mock gunfights with colleagues Bohr always drew second and always won.

I'm hoping the author of this article just didn't want to elaborate, but Bohr never thought it could've just been that he was faster at drawing than his opponents? Switching it so he was the first to draw some of the time would have been better design.

This part of the article is most likely intended as a funny anecdote, not as an accurate description of a scientific experiment. Rest assured that Niels freaking Bohr would have thought of that.
And possibly decided that it would be more fun to leave a good story behind and not be seen to loose :-)
