Vincent Hancock: 3x Olympic Gold Medalist in International Skeet

USA’s Vincent Hancock waited nine years to notch up his third Olympic title, and he did so in style by setting a new Olympic record at Tokyo 2020 on 26 July. The 32-year-old whooped with delight as he shot a 59 out of a possible 60 targets to beat Denmark’s Jesper Hansen into silver on 55. The result for Hancock made up for a disappointing 15th place in Rio 2016, which came after he won the event in Beijing 2008 and London 2012. It had been a closely-fought contest at the Asaka Shooting Range on Day 3 of the Games, with the lead changing hands several times between Hancock and Henson, 40. The American, who is also a four-time world champion, managed to pull away in the last two rounds to win the contest. Olympics.com
