Michael Diamond broke the world record in qualifying. Final later today.

Hasn't missed a shot yet

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

not any more ...

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.

poor bugger, fell apart at the death ... heartbreaking

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.
