The defending champion was Australian Russell Mark who hoped to emulate his teammate, Michael Diamond, who had defended his gold medal in single trap three days before this event. Mark led the preliminary round by two birds, but faltered in the final and was tied by Britain’s Richard Faulds, who had been training with Mark. In the shoot-off, Mark missed the third clay to give Faulds the gold medal. The bronze medal went to Kuwaiti Fehaid Al-Deehani, the first medal ever won at the Olympics for Kuwait.
