2016 Olympian Vincent Hancock grabbed the third medal by an American at this World Cup event with a strong final day that had barely a hiccup. Hancock hit 74 of 75 targets in the second day of qualifying to finish with 123 and avoid the shoot-off for the final as he was in third. Italy’s Tammaro Cassandro tied the world record with a perfect 125 in qualifying. Hancock’s hiccup was in the semifinals and it was a single missed target. Three of the other semifinalists were 16/16 so Hancock was relegated to the bronze medal match. There he regained his perfect form and defeated Jesper Hansen of Denmark to grab the bronze. It was the first medal of the year for Hancock who now has third, fourth, and fifth place finishes might as well round that out with a silver in the world cup event in Baku in a couple weeks and a gold in Rio. Frank Thompson ended up with a second day 70 and a total of 116 to finish 42nd.

The next ISSF World Cup event is a combined rifle, pistol, and shotgun event in Baku, Azerbaijan from June 20th-29th.
