Hope Nathan Hales doesn't get confused and shoot at her instead of the clay targets

Good that someone from Pan America qualified here. Not that we are anywhere close at grabbing one of the Pan American quotas, but getting rid of some competition is always good.

We think alike. Every European quota won here reduces the competition at the next continental championships.

Chatzitsakiroglou 9th in the men's trap is not a bad result. He's very young, I hope he can qualify for Paris (which I have been expecting him to do!)

I am, once again, asking why the heck there are two bronze medals in these mixed shooting team events.

They want to be Urban like Judo wrestling etc. Jk

Are these going to be the first ever predetermined double bronze medals at the Olympics outside of combat sports?

 

It's worth noting that even the days of all the weird rules of Paris 1900 and St. Louis 1904 nobody thought about awarding two bronze medals just... because.

In Tokyo they had a shoot off for the bronze in the mixed team event so I would imagine the same will apply in Paris.

Badminton, Tennis and Table Tennis all awarded two bronze medals in 1992 (and also in 1988 for Tennis).
