Thrilling skeet gold for Hancock

Skeet champion Vincent Hancock of the United States shortly after shooting in Beijing

Hancock kept his nerve in the shoot-off to claim a dramatic gold medal

Vincent Hancock of the United States beat Norway's Tore Brovold in a shoot-off to win the skeet gold medal.

Brovold had a perfect final round on Saturday, hitting all 25 targets to pull level with Hancock on 145 points.

Brovold and Hancock each hit the first two shoot-off targets, but Brovold missed one of his next two efforts and Hancock hit both of his to claim gold.

The bronze medal also went to a shoot-off, with France's Anthony Terras beating Antonis Nikolaidis of Cyprus.
