Only a few shots to go, missed a few but has a 1 clay lead. This stuff is terrible for the nerves.

Yep, all my fault for posting. At one point there he had effectively a 2 clay lead with only a handful of targets to go. If you take the final only, Diamond came last out of 6.

No doubt the "choke" tag will come out but I was nervous just watching, can't imagine how it was for him. Not even a medal in the end. 125/125 going in, 20/25 in the final and then 3/4 in the shoot off. Still, was a chance to win his third gold medal at the business end of the competition.

I blame Nick Green for not letting the Marks room together and Eddie having a go at Lauryn Mark for that very educational photo shoot.
